===298 Turning Bad Things into Good Things===(None Edited)

  Looking for Countermeasures? What can be done now? Is it possible to bypass the US rules and avoid the disclosure of source code and patents through some sidelines?

  However, it is almost impossible for this kind of thing to happen, and the two law enforcement agencies will not give you the opportunity to take advantage of the loopholes.

  Even if there is a real chance to exploit, they will immediately fill the loophole, and then let you spit out more with the benefit, which can be said to be quite overbearing.

  However, Matsuhashi still honestly explained all the sanctions imposed on Youxing Electronic Entertainment by the two agencies.

  First of all, it is convenient for the tax bureau to decide to increase the tariffs on video games and game consoles by 20%. Unless you are going to build a factory in the United States and sell it, you can turn a blind eye. said.

  It means that the tax bureau hopes to bring a large factory to the United States to increase the employment rate, so that the tax bureau's tax can still be drawn from the employed people, and by the way, the dissatisfaction of the people can be reduced, which is a win-win situation.

  However, the cost of building a factory in the United States is very high, and the labor cost is the largest. The current hourly wages of industrial workers are less than twenty dollars.

  If skilled workers also have to increase wages, the average daily wage per worker will be more than $200.

  This kind of daily salary can scare people to death, it is better to accept the 20% tariff increase.

  Zhu Yuxing didn't say anything about this request.

  The tax bureau is nothing more than ordering more money, which is a trivial matter. It is normal for the tax rate to fluctuate. They didn't really kill the chickens and get the eggs, but they just raised the tariffs to a slightly higher level than normal.

  The real nuisance is the Department of Justice.

  Their antitrust bureau has used a variety of reasons to compel UBS to publish multiple patents, as well as the source code of their game consoles.

  This is deadly.

  Public patents aside, once the game console releases the source code, the most serious problem is cracking.

  Moreover, it is still the lowest level of cracking. These four game consoles will have no ability to fight back in the face of piracy in the future.

  When it was made public, it almost declared surrender to piracy.

  So Matsuhashi was unwilling to accept it anyway.

  In addition to disclosing the source code of the host, the compulsory authorization of patents includes light guns, cross keys, shoulder keys, and some patents that have been preempted in advance, but whose usefulness has not been demonstrated for the time being.

  However, the Ministry of Justice may also be afraid of jumping over the wall and abandoning the US market, and then the patent will not be disclosed.

  Therefore, they only require that Youxing Electronic Entertainment can authorize it for a fee, but it must not lock up the patents and prevent anyone from using these patents.

  The patent licensing fee will also be limited to a certain extent, and it should not be too expensive.

  They call this promoting the industry.

  After listening to all the detailed introductions, Matsuhashi also talked about the hard work of the people on their side, which delayed the implementation of these rules for a while.

  This is the last thing they can do.

  "By the way, the president, in addition to the people on our side who are doing their best to delay the development of the situation, there is a company that you may not have expected to help us. That company used its own influence to also affect the rules. The formulation, originally we had to compulsorily disclose more patents, but the company's involvement immediately decreased a lot."

  "Huh? It sounds like this is a very big company, who is it?"

  "Morgan Group."

  Take Yuxing was very surprised.

  Is this company helping you?

  because of what? Just because their own release of Doom boosted the popularity of their system?

  That's an amazing reward.

  The reason why he let Doom log on to the PC is mainly because the PC's performance is indeed stronger, and it can also make the picture better. Zhu Yuxing just wants to experience the game with better picture, and do a high-performance game test at the same time.

  But it seems that he has virtually added a friend to himself.

  The Morgan Group is very similar to Microsoft in its previous life. It is a super giant in the electronics field in the United States. Its status is almost unshakable, and the money is too much to spend.

  Zhu Yuxing said: "I really did not expect the help of the Morgan Group, but I will definitely remember this favor. I will consider cooperation with the Morgan Group in the future, but now, we should carry out our response strategy. "

  Matsuhashi asked suspiciously, "President, have you already thought of a countermeasure? So fast?" Take

  Yuxing shook his head: "No, it's not that I thought of it now, but I thought about it a long time ago. "

  What's the strategy? Is there any way to avoid the source code disclosure of our game consoles?"

  "No, this can't be stopped, just make it public. In fact, it's still a good thing."

  "A good thing?" Song Hashimoto almost thought he had heard it wrong.

  If the source code is made public, then the revenue of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment on these game consoles may fall off a cliff.

  There were legal protections to some extent to ensure that these consoles remained popular.

  But now the U.S. officials have come to forcibly promote the source code disclosure of the four game consoles, which is equivalent to telling people that you can pirate these four game consoles, and we will turn a blind eye and ignore it.

  Of course, Youxing Electronic Entertainment can use legal authorization to protect its own rights and interests, but the cost of suing one by one is incalculable, and the biggest cash cow has also been toppled.

  Zhu Yuxing explained patiently: "I think so, since the source code will inevitably be made public, then we can use it in reverse, just to make all four game consoles completely open source, we also simply put the four game consoles into open source. The development kits of the game consoles have also been released, and the final value is squeezed: the value of talents."

  "How to squeeze this?" Matsudahashi has become more and more incomprehensible.

  "You can prepare now, put on a new advertisement, release the game development kit, hold an event, and reward the people who develop games on our consoles, from individuals to groups, as long as the games they make meet our requirements. , I will give you a bonus and a long-term contract. I will wipe out all game developers in the United States and bring them all into my camp."

  Zhu Yuxing paused, then said: "As for the name of the event, It's called the game star plan, and discover the future game stars."

  There will never be a shortage of talented people in this world, so far Zhu Yuxing has not found a few, but it is just possible to take advantage of this time to make the game machine completely Open source opportunities to recruit such talent.

  Come on, geniuses, our game consoles do not require you to pay any licensing fees, as long as you have interesting ideas, you can develop games on our game consoles at will, and all sales revenue will belong to 100% only You, we will not take a penny, and at the same time we will give you a new contract, a contract that binds genius to death.

  "Apart from these, now I feel that it is finally time to release the ultimate move that we have been hiding for a long time, the GBA, and the GS1 game console, these two game consoles that have been in development for a long time, and now is the most The right release opportunity, isn't it?"
