Hearing that the cost could reach about 32 to 36 US dollars, Li Changheng was satisfied.

Then he joked to Moore, "The Moore's Law you proposed in the future will probably be the greatest achievement in your body."

At this time, Moore and the other two couldn't see how far the computer would develop in the future, so Moore didn't take much care of his compliments.

He smiled and shrugged, "Don't worry, I'm used to being ridiculed by my colleagues anyway."

"Then laugh at you and go back," Li Changheng finished speaking, and said to Robert, "It's no problem to sell the value of $200 to computer manufacturers.

But do you think it’s a lot of money to make for selling one million pieces and the impact is great, or do you just focus on the computer industry and just sell tens of thousands of pieces?”

"Henry, do you really think that just by improving the automation of home appliances, you can sell millions of washing machines, refrigerators, coffee makers, microwave ovens, induction cookers and water heaters and other home appliances?

Moreover, 4004 is a bit ahead of its use in home appliances and cannot fully utilize its performance.”

Li Changheng did not answer directly, but thought for a moment and said, "This chip was sold to computer manufacturers, and then simplified and weakened its functions for me, reducing the cost to $20 per.

The selling price is 120% of the cost price. If you can’t sell 1 million in the next five years, I will compensate you for your losses.”

One million Li Changheng in 5 years has 200% confidence.

According to Moore's 18 months, the number of transistors that can be accommodated on an integrated circuit will double, and the cost will definitely be cut in half in one year and a half.

By then in the mid- and low-end chip market, what we were competing for was cost, not technology.

Moreover, in the future, not only home appliances will need microprocessing chips, cars, telephones, electronic watches and other products to use chips.

As long as the cost can be the same as the island goods that have been increased by tariffs, it will not be 1 million in 5 years, but 5 million in 1 year.

However, what surprised Li Changheng a little, I thought Robert and the other two would hesitate.

But unexpectedly, Robert shook his head and said, "We are not that shameless."

Then, without waiting for Moore to speak to Andy, he continued, "Since you are so confident, I will definitely believe you."

Then Moore and Andy looked at each other, "OK, it seems that Intel's first board of directors was recorded in the company's history with unanimous votes."

“Happy cooperation, gentlemen.”

Li Changheng smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with the three of them, "As long as you can control the cost, I guarantee that you will not be able to spend 5 years, at least you will be worth over 100 million yuan."

Robert and Moore immediately laughed. Andy, whose shares were only 5.5%, asked in disbelief, "Can I have a wealth of 100 million US dollars?"

Robert laughed and said, "During the time when Henry landed on the moon, the outside world valued us 1 billion.

When the market value doubles, you will have a net worth of 100 million!"

“It’s different.”

Andy said calmly, "Don't forget that we can eat solo for one year at most in the calculator market, and even in another 3 months, the same product may appear on the market.

Relying on calculator valuation can only deceive laymen and investors who are rich but pretend to be stupid and have other purposes.

And, don't forget, we're just OEM."

Robert and Moore calmed down when they heard this.

However, Li Changheng smiled and said, "I can authorize you to continue to study calculators suitable for more professionals with trigonometric functions.

Then we make half of the profit each, how about it?"

"You're serious?"

"I don't need to lie to you," Li Changheng shrugged, "I'll find someone to study it myself, or spend time researching it myself, and then continue to ask you to manufacture it, and maybe someone will take the lead.

So, it’s better to hand it over to you directly, after all, I have 51% of the shares of this company.

Gentlemen, money is right in front of you. How much money can be made depends on how fast you are."

Robert and the other two smiled, "I think the prototype will appear in front of you next month."

When Li Changheng heard Robert's words, he understood and laughed.

It must be a fool to say that Intel has never thought about optimizing the calculator.

After all, it has been almost 5 months since the prototype, patents and technology were handed over to them, and the gang has optimized the weight of the calculator before.

The prototype weighing 170 grams was reduced to 11 grams, so it was impossible for Robert and others to continue to optimize.

I didn't say it before, but I just didn't want to cause him to misunderstand.

Li Changheng said this again and was all shareholders who had the absolute shares, and this was the money grabbing stage of the first generation of calculators.

No one will take the initiative to oppose the major shareholder, let alone when there is a big profit.

Therefore, the three of them were surprised and did not feel surprised when Li Changheng was able to bring up this matter on his own initiative.

Because this is the best choice.

As for the profit of 55 points, Robert and the other two thought for a few seconds before nodding.

This is also the most important reason why Li Changheng directly proposed it.

If this is another company, it will be 100% cleared that, and then put it aside and start selling it yourself after optimizing it.

Even if you pay the patent fee, professional-grade calculators in this era, thinking about so many universities, high schools, scientific research institutions and the military can know that the market is actually not small at all.

Moreover, whoever takes the market first will be able to turn the people behind.

Because although the market is not small, it actually has an upper limit.

Even if there are people fighting a price war in the next one or two years, those who have already bought it will curse Intel at most, thinking that it is expensive for them to buy it.

But it is impossible to spend two or three hundred dollars to buy another one when the calculator is not broken.

This is the money grab plan to race against time.

Therefore, what is most beneficial to Li Changheng is of course to cooperate with Intel.

Even Moore and others might be able to take out the prototype tomorrow because there is a prototype lock in the laboratory or office.

Therefore, it is also the most in the interests of the three of them that do not have to sue and make production and sales before other companies.

I had lunch with Robert and talked about the company's development for the afternoon, and listened to the three of them reporting on the company's affairs during this period.

Then he appeared at Robert's house again in the evening to attend the party held by the three of them.

Li Changheng met UBS's manager the next day and looked at the funding records he provided.

Recalling and comparing Robert's money spent on production that he had reported to himself in the past three months, after confirming that there was no problem.

I stared at the total 100 million US dollars in cash in my account and didn't know how to spend it for a while.

But if it doesn't cost you, another month.
Chapter completed!
