Return to the Red Age

Chapter 873 Culture (8000 Words)

"Uh!" Ni Nan was also a little surprised to hear this. The difficulty that troubled the entire laboratory and the research team was easily solved by the boss.

Because of the research, 80% of users are reluctant to give up their electronic pets.

After all, these electronic pets are cultivated by themselves with great effort and accompany their growth.

So everyone is very worried about the sales of electronic pets this time.

"The boss is really wise. The research team of the second generation of electronic pets is still worried about the sales. Most players are unwilling to change to new electronic pets!" Ni Nan really admires the boss.

"I've been thinking about this problem when I have nothing to do. In fact, it's a good thing that everyone has feelings for electronic pets, which will help us upgrade our products in the future."

"Anyway, I just made a rough suggestion. Reincarnation can increase talents or growth values, or special skills."

"After all, the new generation of electronic pets is much better than the first generation in terms of software and hardware, and the colorful ones can also release some gorgeous skills."

"Let's start from this aspect. The game content should be designed to be interesting."

"For example, the owner can set what to say after defeating these pets, such as I will come back, or you wait for me, I will make you look good when we meet next time."

"In addition, some special scenes can be added." Liu Hai said a lot, which are all his own experience in playing games.

In 2020, there should not be too many game routines, not to mention that I have read a lot of novels, and there are many routines in novels.

"Boss, leave the rest to us."

"Our second-generation electronic pets will definitely have higher sales than other companies." Ni Nan said.

Electronic pets are not very complicated, so many manufacturers are following the trend, but the electronic pets developed by Fenghuo Technology Company are the most sold, accounting for 90% of global sales.

"Boss, after discussion, the notebook computer dealers have set the price at 6666 pounds, but the manufacturer's shipping price is only 75% of this."

"The reason for this price is that the notebook will be produced in Gaul in the future. If it is produced in Gaul, the entire production cost will increase by 11%."

"This is the result of the core chip being produced here." Ni Nan took out another document and handed it to Liu Hai.

The pound sterling in this time and space is very strong, and the exchange rate with our currency is about 1 to 9. On the contrary, the US dollar is relatively weak, and the exchange rate with our currency is only about 1 to 7.

The strength of the contemporary pound sterling is still inseparable from our manufacturing power. Bulk materials and goods settlement are now mostly in pounds.

A few years ago, settlement was still in US dollars, mainly to avoid risks.

If we use pounds for settlement too early, if the dealer wants to make trouble and make the fluctuation of the pound sterling at will, we will lose a lot.

In the early days, we used US dollars for settlement, but there was no US dollar, because of this reason.

Now that the pound is going to become an international currency, he dare not easily tamper with the exchange rate.

If dealers tamper with the exchange rate of the pound now, we can expand the settlement range of the US dollar.

Of course, settlement is settlement. In fact, the foreign exchange we get is limited. After settlement, we will buy more materials.

Although it seems that we earn less, at least we support the domestic manufacturing industry.

It seems that our manufacturing industry profit is not very high, that is, more than ten percent, but don’t forget the upstream and downstream industrial chains to feed so many workers.

So in 2020, some manufacturing industries will use export tax rebates. These manufacturing industries do not have much profit in themselves and rely entirely on export tax rebates. They are doing a loss-making business, but how many people in the upstream and downstream industrial chains are supported?

"Tsk tsk!" In other words, the price of a notebook, the factory price has reached nearly 5,000 pounds, which is about 45,000 yuan.

However, the configuration of this notebook is very high, with a 13-inch color LCD screen, a dual-core Loongson chip, and a notebook independent graphics card, a 2G hard drive, 16 megabytes of memory, and a polymer lithium battery!

The manufacturer's profit is about 10%, that is, it makes 5,000 yuan for producing a laptop.

The patent fee of Fenghuo Technology Company is included in other costs.

"Make a low-priced version, reduce the hard disk to 1g, reduce the memory to 8M, and cancel the independent graphics card." Liu Hai felt that the price was a bit too high, but the price discussed by the dealers must have their market analysis.

"I will ask the laboratory to do this immediately, and it should be done soon." Ni Nan also felt that the price of the notebook computer was too expensive, and the factory price was 45,000 yuan. Of course, this notebook is worth the price.

In this way, there are already 150,000 orders for high-end notebooks, all of which are reserved by various dealers.

Subsequent laptops will be produced in the Panda Computer Industrial Park in Gaul.

This is unavoidable, in order to avoid anti-monopoly and anti-dumping in Europe.

Although Fenghuo Technology Company has a strong background and has a good relationship with these dealers and capitalists in Gaul, it is precisely because of this that Liu Hai did this to prevent these people from finding trouble.

Everyone must know that politicians in Europe are always looking for trouble, and some are even stupid. They know there is no way out, but they still want to bring it up.

Liu Hai seemed to remember that there was a congressman there who seemed to take off his pants in public.

"CD-ROM player, electronic pet, laptop, let's leave it at that for this summer vacation." Liu Hai nodded.

These two products are mainly prepared for the upcoming summer vacation.

"Yeah." Ni Nan nodded.

These three new products are enough for this summer vacation, after all, everyone's wallet is limited!

In fact, the manufacturing of MP3 is not complicated now, but the price is relatively high, and the size and weight are not satisfactory.

Of course, the storage capacity inside is also included.

Fenghuo Technology Company also invented the USB flash drive, but the storage capacity of the USB flash drive is too small now. Of course, it has made great progress compared to the floppy disk.

After leaving Fenghuo Technology Company, Liu Hai came to the motorcycle factory again.

Although Liu Hai did not manage the affairs of the No. 001 teaching building, there would be a situation report for any incident.

Liu Hai only did a rough basic work for the No. 001 teaching building, and the subsequent optimization was handed over to the relevant team.

With the development of semiconductor technology, the equipment in the No. 001 teaching building has undergone a relatively large upgrade, mainly upgrading the electronic control system, including adding a lot of sensors.

Although the No. 001 teaching building is a simulated aircraft carrier, it can be made to be like a real aircraft carrier.

In June 1993, the third master reached a cooperation intention with Fei Goose and bought an aircraft carrier from Fei Goose at the price of scrap iron. Then the third master commissioned Fei Goose to successfully build this aircraft carrier, which is a ski-jump take-off aircraft carrier.

And the third master also paid a large sum of money to purchase carrier-based aircraft.

Now the two sides are negotiating on the configuration of the aircraft carrier. Once the configuration negotiation is successful, the third master will also pay a construction fee.

The third master is very excited. Finally, there will be an aircraft carrier. Originally, the third master had an aircraft carrier in history.

This time and space also spent tens of millions of dollars to buy Niu Niu's light aircraft carrier.

But later because of the conflict with Xijin, Niu Niu transferred this light aircraft carrier to Xiaoba.

So the third master suffered a loss at the time, and as for the money paid to Niu Niu, of course it could not be refunded.

In the view of the third master, with the promise of Fei Goose, the aircraft carrier will be equipped soon.

The third boss speaks at the class committee, and he is confident enough to often point fingers at some things in some countries in the East.

For example, he said that the mobile phones exported from some countries in the East and other things are monopolized, and he needs to investigate and collect tariffs.

However, the third boss's boomerang hit the head of the bald eagle again this season.

Because the mobile communication market of the third boss is the panda mobile phone and panda communication system sold by the bald eagle's company.

At the beginning, the Niu Niu dealers took the initiative to give up this market. The Gallic chicken dealers came in and saw that there were poor people everywhere. It must be difficult to deal with it, and they did not get the agency qualification for this area.

On the contrary, the bald eagle's company thought this was a big opportunity. After all, the third boss has so many people, but they found out after entering.

Although there are many people in the third boss, 90% of them are not human beings, and can only be regarded as vassals of those landlords.

Many places don't even have electricity, let alone mobile phone communications.

But at least there are still some customers. Now the third boss's behavior makes the bald eagle's company jump up and down. The sales of Panda mobile phones in the third boss are not good, and now you are going to increase tariffs.

The Bald Eagle's company originally wanted to take advantage of the continued price reduction of the first generation of Panda mobile phones, and then promote the first generation of mobile phones in large quantities in the Third Dang.

They are even ready to refurbish the first generation of mobile phones, or even directly sell second-hand first generation mobile phones.

However, the Third Dang has no good feelings towards the Bald Eagle now. When you, the Eagle, came to me to form an alliance, you said it was fine, but who knew that you would cut me in the back, and when I sold all my food, you would raise the price when you sell your food.

So the Third Dang still insisted on imposing high tariffs on Panda mobile phones.

The Bald Eagle's company was so angry that it threatened to withdraw from the Third Dang.

The Third Dang ignored it at all, hoping that you would withdraw, and then the markets you have entered, the after-sales maintenance personnel you have trained, and the communication signal towers you have built will all be taken over by others.

The Third Dang's eating is too ugly. Ford Chrysler also wanted to build an automobile industrial park in the Third Dang to further reduce costs. After seeing this situation, it terminated the investment negotiations first because it was too shameless.

Liu Hai smiled slightly when he saw the news. Coca-Cola in 2020 will tell everyone what kind of country the third boss is.

It has to be said that Pepsi was very smart in the previous life. Seeing the third boss like this, he did not enter their market directly.

For this reason, the third boss was still complacent, as if he was the only one in the world who could deal with other countries.

Of course, international affairs have nothing to do with most ordinary people.

In a community school in the suburbs of Paris, after school, a group of students of all sizes gathered together.

"Li Yang, help me see how long it will take for my pet to be born, and I will treat you to ice cream." A white-skinned boy was looking at a yellow-skinned boy and said.

"Nick, the ice cream treat for me has been arranged until the new semester, you'd better think of something else." The yellow-skinned boy Li Yang was holding a book with many Chinese characters on it.

"Oh, please help me, I can give you my Transformers collection to play with, but only for two days!"

"One week!"

"One week is too long, three days!"

"Okay, give me your pet's attributes." Li Yang nodded after hearing this.

"Your pet has fire attributes, so it's best if your birth date is fire attribute, so it's easy to increase your pet's attack power."

"Do you mean the time of your pet's reincarnation or the time of your pet's birth?"

"If possible, both should be synchronized." Li Yang opened his hand and checked the book carefully.

"I can't understand your book, although I know the words on it. Every year has attributes, every day has attributes, and every hour has attributes. It's too difficult." Nick knew the Chinese characters on it, but it was too difficult to understand the logic inside!

"This is a spell. It's normal that you Westerners can't understand it. We Orientals can learn it once!" Li Yang's mouth curled up slightly, holding a 1993 almanac in his hand.

"I suggest you go to get the second-generation electronic pet at 11 a.m. on July 6, Thunderbolt, preferably not later than one o'clock."

"Write it down for me, okay?"

"Of course."

The second-generation electronic pet has begun to be promoted and will be on sale on July 1.

The owner of the first generation of electronic pets can get their original electronic pet data and go to the electronic pet seller.

The data of the first generation of electronic pets is transferred, mainly some equipment and the like.

After the transfer, the electronic pet will be reincarnated. The reincarnated electronic pet has one more skill than the first generation of electronic pets, and there is a high probability that rare skills can be awakened, and the growth value can also be increased.

The battle of the latest generation of electronic pets is more gorgeous, with light and shadow effects.

And electronic pets can also input various personalized languages.

For example, after the winner, you can laugh out loud, or you can shout kid, stay away when you see me next time.

The losing pet also has personalized voice, of course, these voices need to be recorded in the electronic pet store.

The equipment of the first generation of electronic pets and money will be synchronized to the second generation of electronic pets.

Because electronic pets are divided into many attributes, gold, wood, water, fire, earth, light, dark, thunder, etc.

Because of some Eastern movies, many players believe in their pets. If they follow the attributes of Eastern spells, they should be able to awaken better attributes.

Therefore, those who understand the attributes of the Eastern date have become the favorites of the people around them.

Of course, the official did not say that there is such an effect, but in fact, it contains the Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.

In other words, if a pet is originally of the fire attribute and is born on a date of mutual generation, it may be able to give birth to rare skills or talents.

Just like a pet of the wood attribute, if it is born on a date of the wood attribute, it is likely to mutate into a wind attribute.

Similarly, if a pet of the fire attribute is born on a date of the fire attribute, there is a certain probability that it will give birth to a light attribute.

In addition, the pet's equipment is also divided into attributes, and the food is also divided into attributes.

"You must strictly follow what I wrote to have a chance to give your pet a rare skill." After Li Yang looked through the almanac, he wrote down a series of dates, which were the times to go to the store to exchange for the electronic pet immediately.

"How about I ask you after I get the electronic pet, because I don't know the hatching time."

"Of course no problem."

"Nick, it's my turn, Li Yang, I have a rare red panda card here!"

"Deal!" Li Yang looked at a beautiful red panda master card, which is the image of the red panda master in Kung Fu Panda.

"Li Yang, what do these represent at the back of this book?" Another foreign student asked, holding the same almanac.

"This is burning incense, which is equivalent to what you call sacrifice in the West!"

"Ah, then can we offer sacrifices?"

"You seem to be governed by God, which is different from us!"

"But our pets are made by you in the East. Do you have any gods in the East who can take care of these pets?"

Li Yang cursed in his heart when he heard this. How the hell do I know that there are gods who take care of pets.

"Li Yang, I seem to remember that there is a god called Dasheng in your place. He is a horse herder. Does he take care of other pets?" Another foreign student asked.

"You know he's a horse herder, how could he have other pets? Besides, yours is a bear?"

"I seem to remember that you have a god's mount, a bear, and you stole the monk's clothes?"

"It's terrible to be uneducated, that's called a cassock!"

"No matter what it stole, which god took the bear monster away in the end?"

"Goddess of Mercy!"

"Yes, yes, that's the goddess holding a porcelain bottle."

"That's called a jade bottle!"

"Goddess of Mercy doesn't distinguish between men and women, so I guess so." Li Yang decided not to argue with these idiots.

"Then you see when you can burn incense with Goddess of Mercy, and I'll also offer sacrifices at that time. Although it may not work, it's better than nothing."

"This? I'm going to go back and ask my parents, because I don't understand much about burning incense."

"Then what about my hellhound?"

"You worship Erlang Shen!"

"Then what about my elf dragon?"

"This?" Li Yang was stunned by the question, and his mind was turning rapidly, to see who could take care of the dragon.

"Hey, I can't answer your questions for free, because I also need to think, I have to go back and ask adults, and look up information!" Li Yang decided to go back and read Journey to the West again, because he seemed to remember that there were four dragon kings, but he was not sure whether the velociraptor was an oriental dragon.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

"Thank you, Li Yang, it's summer vacation, I invite you to our farm to play, our farm has a lot of small animals, and in addition, our farm has a lot of wild rabbits, you like to eat rabbits the most, you can kill rabbits for free then!"

When Li Yang heard this, he immediately patted his chest and said: "No problem, I will solve all your pet issues for you, do you have air guns at home?"

"Of course, we will also set traps."

When Li Yang heard this, his saliva flowed out, braised rabbit, spicy rabbit, cold rabbit, ginger rabbit.

He quickly said: "I don't eat your beans, tomato stewed rabbit!"

In the past, Li Yang's classmates heard that Li Yang liked to eat rabbits, so they invited him to their home as a guest.

Li Yang also brought gifts to his classmate's house, and saw the mushy on the plate.

Canned green peas, canned mushrooms, tomatoes, and rabbit were cooked together, stirring while cooking.

Li Yang swore that this was the most unpalatable rabbit meat he had ever seen in his life. No wonder no one likes to eat rabbit here. The way they cook it is disgusting.

"Actually, I think mushrooms, tomatoes, peas and rabbit stew are delicious!"

"Then you can eat it yourself!"

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. My pet is a Jiao with earth attribute. I checked the information and it seems to be both a snake and a dragon. What is this?"

MMP!

Li Yang was also stumped by the question, and then he picked up a pen and wrote: "You tell me one by one, I will go back to check the information, and if it doesn't work, I will call back to our country."

"That's really too much trouble for you!"

"That's right!"

"No trouble, no trouble!"

"I am a gold-attributed tree demon..."

At night, Li Yang returned home with his notebook.

Li Yang's parents work in the Panda Industrial Park in Gaul. His father is an oriental and his mother is a native of Gaul.

"Dad, can you see if I can answer these questions?" Li Yang's father looked at the questions on his son's notebook and was also full of question marks.

Which god in the oriental countries is in charge of pets? ?

Is Jiao a snake or a dragon?

Is the tree demon a tree or a demon? Who is in charge?

What kind of dragon is the velociraptor, a western dragon or an eastern dragon? Which god is in charge?

"Huh? What kind of messed up questions are you asking?" Li Yang's father asked puzzledly after seeing these.

"It's a pity that you are still a doctoral student. You don't know anything about the traditional culture of our country, and you don't know as much as my classmates. It's really tiring to talk to you. I'll go check the information myself!"

"Where do you check the information?"

"Journey to the West?"

"Huh?" Li Yang's father touched his forehead. It seems that he doesn't have a fever, right?

Don't underestimate the so-called secrets between children.

Li Yang read Journey to the West again, but he didn't find many answers, so he went to his father's study.

Li Yang's father was also confused. What was his son doing?

Li Yang went directly to the Internet and entered the Taoist forums in some Eastern countries!

"Oh, oh, oh!" Li Yang found that there were many questions he wanted to ask, and he was immediately happy to take a notebook and write them down.

Little did he know that in some Eastern countries, these Taoists who would go online looked at the strange questions of these people in the forums, and some of the wording and sentences looked so awkward.

Can Guanyin take care of pet bears?

A Taoist in some Eastern countries saw this question and asked back: Where did you get the answer? Can Guanyin take care of pet bears?

The other party copied a paragraph more than ten minutes later: Sun Wukong failed to ask for the cassock twice, so he asked Guanyin Bodhisattva of the South China Sea for help. The two used a trick to defeat the black bear spirit. Guanyin saw that the black bear spirit had some Taoist points, so she subdued it with a golden hoop and took it back to the South China Sea, and became the mountain guardian god in Luojia Mountain.

The above evidence proves that the mount of Guanyin is a bear, so Guanyin can manage bear pets?

The Taoist priest in front of the computer was confused, is Journey to the West a novel?

So he retorted: You are talking about Journey to the West, a novel, a mythological novel.

The other party asked again: Then which god do you think can manage bear pets? And there is no incense during sacrifice, what is used as a substitute?

The Taoist priests in some Eastern countries were even more confused, sacrifice? Incense? Substitute?

The Taoist priest could only answer: Not necessarily incense, it can be fruit or food.

At this time, the Taoist priest saw someone asking another question: Taoist priest, is the velociraptor an Eastern dragon or a Western dragon?

The Taoist priest had a hundred question marks in his mind and wanted to answer that the velociraptor is a Western dragon, but there are also dinosaurs on the Eastern land, so he answered that it can be both Eastern and Western.

Then the other party asked again: Is the dragon under the jurisdiction of the Dragon King or the Heavenly Court? Which god is in charge?

The velociraptor seems to be on land, and the Dragon King seems to be in the sea?

The Taoist priest quickly asked: Why are there so many strange questions recently?

The other party's explanation made the Taoist priest confused: We are preparing to buy the second generation of electronic pets. Electronic pets have different attributes, and we have to calculate their reincarnation date and birth date. For example, the reincarnation date and birth date of pets with water attributes must be mutually beneficial.

Taoist priest: What the hell?

Li Yang was the one who asked the question later. Seeing that no one answered, Li Yang asked again: Could the Taoist priest be fake? Don’t you understand this?

The Taoist priests in front of computers in some Eastern countries couldn't wait to throw their ultimatums at this guy, and actually said that they were fake.

The Taoist priest sent another message: Judging from what you expressed, there seems to be something wrong. Are you foreigners?

The other party immediately replied: I am an authentic Oriental, but now I go to school in the West.

Taoist priest: Someone above asked what sacrifice is?

Li Yang: That’s when they saw the date of burning incense at the back of the almanac and wanted to pay homage.

Taoist priest: Damn it! ! ! !

Taoist Priest: Send your question once, and I’ll find someone to sort it out!

Li Yang: Can you send it to me privately so I can make money from this?

Taoist priest: Monks have no money in their eyes!

For students in the West who have electronic pets in their hands, the more mysterious something is, the more they believe it.

In order to give their pets special attributes or special skills, these students also worked hard.

Some students even rented the translated film of Journey to the West and watched it again, mainly to see who controlled the goblins in it.

As long as a few students believe it, soon a large number of students around them will believe it.

The sales of the first generation of electronic pets exceeded 100 million. What a huge group this is.

Even the parents of these students in the West, after knowing these things, dare not say that this thing is useless because it is related to God’s things.

Western dealers keenly discovered this business opportunity, so they quickly consulted FiberHome Technology Company.

When FiberHome Technology designed the game, it originally had the theory of the five elements mutually reinforcing each other.

So at the end of June, you can see bright signs outside electronic pet sales stores in the West.

July 1, 1993, the Japanese zodiac sign is willow, which is suitable for the reincarnation of pets with earth attributes!

On July 2, 1993, a pet with a Japanese attribute of spring water and a suitable wood attribute was reincarnated.

Li Yang looked at the signboard and cursed in his mind, isn't this robbing his own business?

When Liu Hai heard the news, it was already early July. At this time, Liu Hai was already on vacation in the mountains of Hainan.

I still heard about bangs from my own baby.

"This may be a cultural influence!" The old leader also laughed when he heard Liu Hai's children talking about these things!

"I don't know who spread the news. This theory was indeed used when designing the game, but it has little to do with the attributes of reincarnated pets. I just don't know if the design department changed it later." Liu Hai asked about the specific skills and attributes of pets. There are no detailed regulations on these, and they are all left to the people below to make their own decisions.

"This is a good thing. In terms of culture, we have been influenced by the West for many years." The old leader naturally knew that Liu Hai could not personally intervene in these matters!

Liu Hai nodded. As an owner of an electronic pet, he definitely hopes that his pet will get better and better, so he will not let it go even if there is a slight chance.

The main thing is that the electronic pets fight with each other. If they win in front of their classmates, they will be more proud. If they are their own pets, having a Journey to the West can make other students envious for a semester.

Therefore, no matter whether this matter is true or false, these students will not give up. Often it is something that is not officially publicized, but if it is spread privately, it will become more and more credible.

"It's still useful. A classmate in our class burned incense, and after his pet was reincarnated, it became a wind attribute." The third child, Shiliu, answered seriously.

"What about you?" The old leader looked at the third child and asked.

"I'm unlucky. I didn't wash my hands when I was burning incense at home, and the Taoist priests in the post bar didn't explain it clearly." Lao San's words made everyone laugh.

Of course Liu Hai knows that pets with rare attributes are random, and it is impossible to say that every pet has rare attributes.

The old leader felt something strange in his heart. He used to disdain these things, but now in retrospect, he realizes that this is actually part of history, and these cultures have penetrated into people's bones.

It is simply impossible to forcibly remove these cultures.

Of course, the old leader will definitely not interfere in this matter.

The old leader has no idea that people are just curious. As long as they get started with Taoism, they will want to study it more and more.

However, foreigners don't understand the Five Elements very well, but people in the East can understand it if they just talk about it a little bit.

This may be the cultural heritage engraved in genes.

Because the second-generation electronic pets have Bluetooth, as long as two people's electronic pets are within a certain range, they can choose and then compete.

At any time during the summer vacation, you can see a dozen students sitting together and competing.

Winning PK will give you experience points and a personalized voice.

If anyone wins, the other friends around them will look envious.

In addition, the second generation now has a color screen and has the light and shadow effects of skills. You can see that the skills released on the screen, such as fire breathing, are like a large ball of flame that fills the entire screen.

The visual experience has also reached the highest level. Of course, what follows is the order for electronic pets. The orders for the second-generation electronic pets are pressing at 10 million units. Even if the sales volume of the first-generation electronic pets is 30%, there are still 30 million units. Order.

Younger children play with electronic pets, high school and college students play with CD players, and the more advanced ones play with laptops. This summer, Fenghuo Technology's products are once again popular around the world!
