Daguo Technology started from the Shanzhai system

Chapter 76 Asset-Light Versus Asset-Heavy

Moreover, Suguang's new mobile phone factory is still under construction. Even if a new mobile phone is developed at this time, it will only compete for production capacity, and there is no need to launch a new mobile phone.

Of course, the reason why Lin Chen thinks this way is that he has the king of the stronghold system, and if he really wants to launch a new mobile phone with a configuration that is almost just a change of the shell and an upgrade point configuration, it will not take long.

For Lin Chen, one month is enough. During this window period, it is better to spend energy to port more games first.

After all, the selling point of their Sugon A1 mobile phone is that apart from its resistance to falling and good quality, the most important thing is that it can play red and white machine games.

However, facing the admiring gazes cast by Huang Hua and Chen Dong at this time, Lin Chen was not complacent, but looked at Chen Dong and said seriously:

"It's a good thing that our company is facing negative public opinion pressure, which makes some guys look bad and choose to leave. This is a good thing. Unstable factors have left us at Sugon Technology.

The rest are those who can be trusted. Next, you need to investigate and select the internal personnel of our Sugon Technology, and then set up a mobile game transplantation team.

In the future, we will find a way to transplant all the popular games of the red and white machines, as well as the games of the old arcade machines, to our Suguang mobile phone system.

There is no need to worry about the problem that the old arcade machines have too high requirements on the performance of mobile phones and cannot run Sugon A1 mobile phones.

The performance of mobile phone processors will also gradually improve in accordance with Moore's Law. This year's mobile phone processor performance is too low to run, and next year's new mobile phone processors may be able to support it.

I heard that Texas Instruments is developing the next-generation mobile phone processor OMAP1710, and the next-generation OMAP171 mobile phone processor is said to improve performance by 40%.

So our current mobile phone processor may not be able to support old arcade games, but the next OMAP1710 mobile phone processor should be able to barely play old arcade games with low performance requirements.

So at that time, it may be possible to transplant all old arcade games such as "The King of Fighters 97", "Dinosaur Kombat", "Street Fighter" and "Three Kingdoms" to the new mobile phone. "

Hearing this, Huang Hua and Chen Dong's eyes lit up immediately, and then they looked at Lin Chen in shock.

Here in Daxia, the influence of arcade games is many times greater than that of home console games!
Because many people they may not have a home console due to lack of funds or pressure from their parents, but many of them have been to arcades and played arcade games!

And although it is not impossible to play games by yourself, it is fun when there are many people.

It is infinitely fun to fight with the sky, it is infinitely fun to fight with the earth, and it is even more enjoyable to fight with people.

Therefore, the player base of arcade games is actually ten times larger than that of home console games. If Sugon Mobile can really transplant those popular arcade games to the next generation of Sugon Mobile.

Let the next-generation Shuguang mobile phone be able to play those popular games, and it is best if it can play arcade games online, then it is very possible to defeat the Boshima mobile phone by this alone!
After all, don't underestimate the people's love for games in Daxia.

It is said that Chen Tianqiao, the boss of Shengda Network who operates online games, can earn 5600 million yuan a month with an estimated annual income of 6.9 million yuan just by relying on four games such as "Legend", "New Hero Gate", and "Crazy Tank"!
A monthly income of 5600 million and an annual income of 6.9 million are terrifying figures, figures that are enough to make Sugon Technology envious.

Because the current monthly production capacity of Sugon mobile phones is only 12 units, and the profit of each mobile phone is only more than 400 yuan, and Sugon Technology is an asset-heavy industry.

The other party is an online game agent in the asset-light industry. Because Sugon Technology is an asset-heavy industry, it needs to invest a huge amount of research and development costs, and also needs to purchase various equipment.

So in the end, when calculating which company can actually save more money for dividends, the answer is undoubtedly Chen Tianqiao, Shengda Network's asset-light operating online game company.

So in terms of the final real dividend capacity, because Sugon Technology needs to allocate more funds for production expansion and research and development of new technologies and new mobile phones.

In the final calculation, it will be found that although the monthly profit of Sugon Technology and Shengda Network is less than 1000 million on the books, Sugon Technology needs to invest huge operating and R&D costs because it is an asset-heavy industry.

In the end, you will find that the dividend income that several Sugon Technologies can actually get is not as good as the dividend income of a Shengda Network, so it is really profitable to engage in the asset-light model of online games in this era.

Or to be more precise, not only in this era, but even in 2023, future generations will really make money if they engage in online oil. This is the benefit of the asset-light industry!

Of course, the asset-heavy model is not without advantages. The advantage is that it is easy to form a monopoly in disguise. The asset-heavy competition pressure is low and it can continue to make money for many years.

Because the cost of playing heavy assets is very high, if a new enterprise wants to grow, it needs more funds to build factories.

It is necessary to spend more funds for scientific research and development, and it is necessary to find a way to bypass other people's patent barriers and develop its own technology patents.

Therefore, the cost required to play heavy assets is really quite high, which can scare away a lot of capital inherently, and ultimately lead to low competitive pressure in the industry.

At this time, if you can become the top few in the industry and master a lot of patents, then you will be able to enjoy the dividends of the industry, and the income will be stable, and you will be able to monopolize in disguise because there are relatively few competitors.

After all, asset-light requires less investment, so the peers will gain a lot, and the pressure of competition may overturn at any time, so asset-light and asset-heavy have their own advantages.

"Play arcade games on your phone? It would be great if you could."

Chen Dong on the side was very excited when he heard Lin Chen's words.

"Naturally."

Lin Chen nodded slightly. It is indeed difficult to play arcade games on mobile phones in the current era.

But it only takes two or three years at most. According to Moore's Law, there must be a processor that can support all arcade games.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if the performance doesn’t meet the standard after 2 to 3 years, Sugon Technology can completely develop its own high-performance mobile phone processor.

But in this case, the gameplay of the game is not the same. The new gameplay is to cultivate one's own game ecosystem, software ecosystem and hardware ecosystem to form a perfect closed loop.

Just like the later Pingguo mobile phones, the mobile phone processor is produced by itself, and the mobile phone system and software game ecosystem are also controlled by itself, eventually forming a complete software and hardware ecosystem!

Of course, these are still too far away. They are not what Sugon Technology can think about now. Sugon Technology can only be qualified to do so if it defeats the current domestic mobile phone leader Bodao Mobile.

So as Lin Chen made a decision, the next meeting was quite boring, and soon Suguang Technology fell into a busy working state.

……

The morning after three days.

There are currently 42 Shuguang Electronics directly-operated stores across the country, and 42 grand events that are destined to shock the whole country are held at the same time.

　First of all, thank Yuya for the reward!
　　In addition, I would like to talk about the plan for the release of this book. After 4 rounds of recommendations, the book failed to be promoted, and could not be recommended by Sanjiang. It had no choice but to be released on the next Friday (April 2023, 4).

　　There will definitely be an update plan on the day of release. As for how much update is released, it depends on how exciting the day is. If the day of release is as smooth as water, then maybe the 2 chapters will be updated as usual without update.

　　Of course, if it's exciting enough, it's not impossible to release all the current 10 chapters in one go. Anyway, let's look forward to next Friday.
