Chapter 482 PSP Needs Jiangnan

[PS: There is a recommendation on the 20th, and the editor strongly requested that there be an update on that day, so there will be two updates in the past few days, and all the additional updates will be saved for that day, so that everyone can enjoy watching it at once!]

In the eyes of these people, Jiangnan Group will definitely invest all the 60 billion yuan it received in industries that make money quickly, such as real estate. After all, it will make more money and be more stable. Basically, it is

Picking money from the ground instead of investing it in concrete production processes.

Many Chinese companies they have seen are like this.

Of course, the purpose of their coming to Wenzhou this time was not for the 60 billion yuan. In fact, they only learned the news after arriving in Wenzhou. The real purpose of their coming to Wenzhou was actually to purchase things. To purchase a

Something they don't have.

"Mr. Matsumoto, I didn't expect you to come here. I thought that the proud Yamato nation would not take a fancy to these gadgets of the Chinese!" Park Kangxi said with a smile, while Matsumoto Yilong's expression was slightly amusement.

Ugly.

One person said that deep down in his heart, he felt that coming to China for purchasing was actually a very shameful thing.

He is a representative of the majestic Sony Corporation, a top figure in the Japanese technology industry, and now he actually wants to go to China to purchase goods for the company. What the hell is this!

Of course, Ryuichi Matsumoto would not let Park Chung-hee gain the upper hand, so he said calmly, "Sony is indeed one of the best technology companies in the world, but Sony has not invested much in research and development of memory chips."

, it is a matter of course that we need to buy the best memory chips in the world."

"But isn't Samsung the best memory chip manufacturer in the world? Why do you now have to go to this little Wenzhou to purchase?"

"Haha!" Park Kangxi laughed dryly. After being silent for a while, he said, "Okay, we are both here to be wronged, so we shouldn't attack each other. The most important thing is to complete the tasks given by the company."

"As far as I know, you made a special trip to Jiangnan Group this morning. Did you meet with Boss Huang and get their commitment?" Park Kangxi asked curiously.

"I just had a cup of tea at their front desk, and I didn't see anyone!" When talking about this incident, Matsumoto Ryuichi's expression became even more ugly.

He did go to Jiangnan Group this morning. The purpose was of course to get Jiangnan Group's commitment to give priority to supplying goods to Sony. However, no senior executives from Jiangnan Group came forward, and only a few middle-level leaders from the administrative department were there to receive them.

Yes, it was them. Representatives from at least a dozen companies rushed over to make promises. As soon as Matsumoto Ryuu saw this attitude, he was too embarrassed to stay there and left Jiangnan Group without even sitting down.

"Hey, at least more than 50 companies have come this time. I have seen more than 20 colleagues. They are all living in this five-star hotel now. It seems that it is very difficult to complete the company's tasks this time.

It’s difficult!” Park Kangxi sighed.

"By the way, how many chips does Samsung want to purchase?" Ryuichi Matsumoto asked curiously.

"The more, the merrier, there is no upper limit!" Park Kangxi said with a smile.

"Haha!" Matsumoto Ryuichi laughed and stopped talking.

"But looking at this situation, it's impossible to win them all. Mr. Matsumoto, how about our two families unite and win the majority of this order?" Park Kangxi said solemnly, "Our two families unite.

, we can get the largest share from it and meet the needs of our two families!"

"Okay!" Matsumoto Ryuichi nodded in agreement without thinking too much. He had no choice but to think about how to complete the tasks assigned above and swallow a large portion of the memory chips released by Jiangnan Group this time!

About 30 days ago, Sony received an invitation letter, saying that Sony was invited to participate in the memory chip procurement meeting held by Jiangnan Group.

Sony's original attitude was completely dismissive of this. Just kidding, when will Sony need to purchase memory chips produced by the Chinese? This is simply the most ridiculous joke in the world. They can really produce memory chips.

A product like a chip?

So the person in charge of Sony’s purchasing department at that time simply lost the invitation letter to who knows where.

As a result, when the sale time of Jiangnan Optoelectronics was revealed, and major chip companies around the world were rushing to make crazy bids to win over Jiangnan Optoelectronics, Sony realized that something was wrong.

So they made some inquiries and discovered that this Chinese company called Jiangnan Group seemed to have really produced amazing memory chips that could crush the entire market.

At this moment, the Sony Group couldn't sit still. They remembered that Jiangnan Group also included several memory chip samples with the invitation letter and provided them to various companies for testing.

So the entire purchasing department was almost turned upside down before finally finding the invitation letter in the toilet. Then, suppressing nausea, he opened the invitation letter, took away the chip inside, and took it to the technical department for testing.

Sony immediately knelt down.

It is said that the technician in charge of memory chip testing at the time said after the test was completed that the technology of this chip was the devil's technology because he had no idea how such performance was achieved.

Well, no matter how this performance is achieved, as long as this product is real, that is enough, because now Sony is extremely eager for high-quality memory chips.

The first product that has huge demand for memory chips is MP3.

Now Sony is planning to launch a new high-end MP3. It originally planned to purchase a 526MB storage chip from Samsung. This capacity is definitely the highest in the entire MP3 industry. After all, the size of an MP3 is larger than a thumb drive.

, but this kind of component is much larger than a thumb drive, so to plug in a 526MB capacity, you already need to use the world's top memory chips.

But I never expected that Jiangnan Group would launch a memory chip with a capacity of up to 2GB, which is one size smaller than Samsung's 526 memory chip. If other companies' MP3 players used memory chips with this capacity, Sony would have no shame in claiming that it had it.

MP3 is the most powerful MP3 player in the world.

In fact, among the memory chips sold this time, the highest capacity has reached an astonishing 16GB/chip, and the size is only about twice as large as Samsung's 526. If Sony is willing to slightly change the appearance of this MP3

In terms of structural design, it really kills everyone.

After all, Apple's iPod3 is putting great pressure on the entire MP3 market. Sony was originally the king of the MP3 market, but now it has been completely suppressed by Apple. Sony is counting on this new high-end MP3 to regain the high-end status of MP3.

market, and then radiate the entire market from top to bottom, becoming the world's number one manufacturer of portable music electronic equipment again.

Originally, Sony has held this title for nearly 30 years. Ever since the world's first Walkman, this title has been firmly on Sony's head. However, it has now been taken away by the sudden appearance of Apple.

, this made everyone at Sony extremely uncomfortable, and they were also particularly concerned about the memory chips released by Jiangnan Group this time, and issued an order to obtain at least 1 million pieces.

It would be best to take them all away, so that high-capacity MP3s become Sony's exclusive products.

And it’s not just Sony’s MP3 that needs these memory chips. What’s even more needed is the PSP, which is still in a mysterious state of research and development.

Therefore, at this time, it has basically occupied the leading advantage in the game console market. Even though PS2 was released a year earlier, Nintendo's ngGC, which was released a year later, is still known as one of the most failed consoles in Nintendo's history.

Therefore, after being proud, Sony plans to pursue the victory and continue to enter the handheld market. After all, the market is still firmly controlled by Nintendo's GBA, and this is a market with more precise profits.

And this product that intends to destroy the handheld market is the PSP.

The research and development of Sony's PSP was going quite smoothly. At this time, it had basically come up with a prototype. It just needed to be further improved and then launched into the market.

It's just that Sony's PSP is now facing a very difficult problem, and that is the problem of storage media.

At this time, the PSP faced two choices. One was to have built-in storage space, and then purchase the game entirely through online download, while the game itself could be stored directly in the PSP.

The advantage of this is that it appears to have a higher level of technology, completely overcoming the handheld card insertion routine pursued by Nintendo at this time, that is, to play a handheld game, the only way to change the game is to insert a card.

In this way, the game cartridge itself does not require a certain amount of production cost, and it also greatly reduces the player's gaming experience. On the contrary, a PSP with a large amount of built-in memory can store dozens of games without inserting a card, so you can play how you want.

Obviously it will be more sought after and praised by players, after all, this is an absolute advantage technically.

The main reason why ps2 was able to defeat Nintendo's console was because it had a large amount of built-in storage space and abandoned the disc used by ps1, which greatly improved the technology and convenience of the console.

It's just that the same routine runs into trouble when used on the PSP, because the internal memory chip that the PSP can support is only 256MB at most, so the games that a PSP can store are quite limited.

After all, by 2003, the capacity of a handheld game was basically more than 100MB. If a handheld game can only store 2-3 games, it is better to continue to use the memory stick mode.

Of course, this is the same memory chip that the previous MP3 requires. It’s not that there are no higher-capacity memory chips on the market, but the price is too expensive and the size is too large. If the PSP uses a higher-capacity memory chip, then the entire

The manufacturing cost and size of the handheld console will increase, which is unacceptable to Sony, which wants to keep the price of the PSP at $299.

Originally, Sony had decided to compromise internally. The first-generation PSP simply retained only a small piece of running memory. As for the games themselves, they relied entirely on memory sticks for sales and storage, which meant that they were still back to the previous era of plug-in cards.

But things are different after Jiangnan Group launched a new memory chip. Their quotation on the invitation letter for a 1GB memory chip is US$49 per piece.

This price is the same as the previous 256MB memory chip, but the size is smaller. If the PSP can use Jiangnan Group's memory chips, then Sony can create a PSP game handheld that surpasses the times.

Completely driving Nintendo's handheld console into the abyss and dominating the entire game market.
