Chapter 138
Wu Congzhou was overjoyed when he got the news. He had been waiting for so long that the accessories finally arrived.
Because the factory had not been fully built, this batch of accessories was placed in the warehouse of the village committee.
Wu Congzhou and Zhao Xiaoqiang couldn't wait to go to 712 to take out some of the chips, hoping to make a prototype today.
Li Daochang and Wei Hongjun also rushed over after getting the news. They all wanted to see the finished product and experience it first.
Although everyone trusted Zhou Feng's judgment, they were still very curious about what Zhengfeng was going to produce.
The quality of the product is very important because it is related to whether the first major customer order of 712 can continue.
When Zhou Feng arrived, the whole warehouse was crowded with people, and most of the village cadres were present.
Tian Qiushan has also dealt with the affairs of the antenna factory in the past two days. After discussion between the commune and the village, it was decided to select an old worker who has always performed well in the factory to serve as the production director.
The factory director has not yet been decided. Chen Jianshe will serve temporarily. The antenna factory has���To get on the right track, we just need to produce according to the routine.
Tian Qiushan, the future factory manager, must be present at the first appearance of the sample machine.
During this period of time, Wu Congzhou had already studied the product drawings clearly, and started to assemble them as soon as Zhou Feng arrived.
The central processor used by the red and white machine is ZF2A03G, the memory and video memory are both 2kb, an image controller that can display 64 colors, and a programmable sound generator.
The red and white color scheme is very eye-catching, and the structure of the red and white machine is not very complicated.
There is a reset switch, a power button, a game card slot, and two cross-key handles with the patent of Zhengfeng Company on the host.
There are power and audio and video output interfaces on the back of the host for connecting to the TV terminal.
In addition, there are two expansion ports for connecting to subsequent Zhengfeng series peripherals.
Everyone was attracted when the finished product came out. Although they didn't know how it would work, the appearance was very attractive and looked very technological.
After assembling the equipment, Wu Congzhou took out the Apple 2 computer and the burner that Zhou Feng had asked him to make before.
The burning process was not complicated, and soon the first"Donkey Kong" game cartridge was born.
After all the connections were made, Wu Congzhou glanced at Zhou Feng.
Zhou Feng nodded and said,"Turn it on."
All eyes were focused on the TV on the table.
As Wu Congzhou turned on the device, the screen flashed and a cute gorilla appeared on the screen.
Everyone couldn't help but cheer.
"It’s coming out! It’s coming out!"
"Is this a gorilla?"
"It's amazing!"
Zhou Feng took a quick look and found that it was the old branch secretary who said it was amazing. He thought to himself that this was just the beginning. No one present had any experience in playing games. Zhou Feng took the lead and sat on the chair, picked up the main controller, pressed the start button, and made a bold statement:
"If anyone can score higher than me, I will buy him a week's worth of drinks."
As the music started, Zhou Feng manipulated Mario, who was making his debut, to move around on the small TV screen, which amazed the onlookers.
In an age when watching TV is a luxury, it is so rare to be able to control the characters on TV.
Everyone's eyes followed Mario's movements, and they were excited every time he escaped danger. The world of video games was also revealed to them for the first time.
When Mario, who was controlled by Zhou Feng, was knocked down by a wooden barrel, he was squeezed down and had no chance to continue playing. There were too many people who wanted to try it themselves. Even the old branch secretary went up to compare. There were people in the warehouse all day.
Li Daochang was completely relieved and felt the charm of the game for the first time, but he still said to Zhou Feng with some worry:
"Xiao Feng, this thing is a bit addictive!"
Zhou Feng nodded. Fun is the first element of the game. The equipment is just a carrier. What really makes consumers pay is the game. The reason why Yagali, the current giant in the gaming industry, died so quickly is because of the poor quality of the game.
But Zhou Feng did not understand the meaning of Li Daochang's words.
Seeing that Zhou Feng did not understand, Li Daochang said again:"Xiao Feng, if this thing is released in China, it may cause some unnecessary trouble."
Zhou Feng understood, and said with a smile:"Don't worry, Brother Li, I don't plan to list it in China within two years. I will launch some differentiated products in China."
Li Daochang was slightly relieved after hearing this. He was really afraid that Zhou Feng would be stubborn. Apart from the policy issues, this kind of purely entertainment product must have many users, but it will also face a lot of criticism.
Once it is defined, it will not be easy to make a comeback in China.
Zhou Feng was very grateful for Li Daochang's reminder. He really treated him as his own. It is not only troublesome to launch it in China at this time point, but it is a big trouble.
The real rise of domestic home game consoles was in the late 1980s. Even though the concept of games was already well known to everyone, it caused an uproar at that time, forcing many companies to use the guise of learning machines to pass the review and enter the market.
Zhou Feng has never thought of touching this bad luck in China since he made up his mind to go in this direction.
Although games will infiltrate sooner or later under the tide of the times, it is better to be late than late. Playing with things and losing one's ambition is not an empty talk.
His goal has always been to reap overseas Capital, he will not forget this original intention.
But if any party wants to end up in China, Zhou Feng will not hesitate to hit them head-on.
Now the battlefield is not here, but their old nest.
The success of the prototype also allows Zhengfeng Company to officially operate.
Zhou Feng asked Tian Qiushan to recruit assembly workers first, and asked Wu Congzhou to assist in personnel training.
Zheng Bo from the factory gave the news that it would take about a week to officially move in.
So the temporary office was placed in the warehouse of the village branch. There is the foundation of the antenna factory, so production is not a problem. A large-scale recruitment plan has been released, and in addition, people have come from other places one after another during this period.
Zhou Feng interviewed Tian Qiushan and Wu Congzhou in the early stage, first determined the tone of recruiting talents, and then didn't care about it.
He has more important things to do, that is, marriage is on the agenda.
