    Behind the press box, there were more than a dozen cameras and cameras set up. Staff members from various TV stations also held long poles and put the microphones as close as possible to the podium to record the clearest sound.  ??The best central position is occupied by ATV, and the microphone with the ATV logo is placed directly on the podium.  There were security guards surrounding the cameras to protect them from being disturbed by the crowd.  This kind of treatment Walker shook his head in envy. Fortunately, the Asian Wall Street Journal was one of the most famous newspapers on the island, so it gave them a separate seat, so they didn't have to stand like everyone else.  After taking his seat, Walker took the opportunity to chat with acquaintances and looked around. He found that the media coming today were not just the dozens of media on the island, but also economic, technological, and technological media from Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and even Europe and the United States.  There were a lot of newspapers and magazines, no less than forty or fifty in number!  There are so many professional reporters here, presumably not just because of Taiyu. After all, the projects involved in Taiyu Technology are limited to arcade machines, and can only be regarded as related to computers and electronics. It has not yet reached the point where professional media around the world have come.  Attention-grabbing situation.  They come here mostly because of Motorola.  This is the giant who stomps his feet and makes the global electronics industry tremble.  At nine o'clock sharp, the small door on the right side of the press conference hall opened, and Mao Xiuliang, the current CEO of Taiyu Technology, walked out of the door with a smile.  Behind him was Sainsbury, Motorola's chief representative in Asia.  Giles, however, looked solemn and showed no emotion or anger, making it impossible for reporters to guess the possible direction of today's press conference based on his expression.  Countless flash lights lit up quickly, increasing the brightness in the hall by an order of magnitude.  "Mr. Giles, Taiyu has terminated its four-year cooperation with your company this time. I wonder what Motorola's plans are?" "Mr. Giles, does today's press conference announce a complete break between the two companies?  " Dozens of reporters excitedly moved forward with microphones in hand, trying to provoke the other party with speculations or deliberately provocative questions and get some unexpected exclusive news.  ¡°If the security hadn¡¯t acted quickly and quickly set up a cordon, these reporters could have drowned the two of them in an instant.  Giles¡¯ face was expressionless, his movements neither fast nor slow, and he turned a blind eye to the reporters around him.  Groups of photographers swarmed forward, squatting or standing, across the cordon, and pressed the shutter on the two people under the watchful eyes of the security guards.  Mao Xiuliang lowered his head and whispered to Giles for a few words, as if he was trying to give way to who would speak.  Giles raised his hand and made a gesture, indicating that he should be invited first, so Mao Xiuliang searched around the rostrum, picked up the microphone with the ATV logo, and turned on the switch.  "Thank you all friends from the media for coming to this press conference. For your support, on behalf of Taiyu Technology, I would like to express my deep gratitude" Mao Xiuliang said a few words of greeting at the beginning, and then looked at the impatient expressions of all reporters.  Let¡¯s get to the point: ¡°The purpose of today¡¯s press conference is to clarify some previous rumors and misunderstandings between us and Motorola through various media.  Cooperation with Motorola. The reason why 6502 is no longer used as the core processor of arcade machines is because with the advancement of semiconductor technology and the development of arcade games, this processor has become overwhelmed and can no longer undertake more important core computing tasks.  We need a chip with stronger computing power to replace it, and we chose the Actuarial One processor. Currently, this processor cannot be sold externally due to insufficient production capacity. However, in the future, Taiyu and Motorola will jointly invest in building a new one in Hong Kong.  A joint venture to produce and sell this processor to meet the needs of all walks of life" Wow!  As soon as Mao Xiuliang said this, there was a huge sensation in the hall.  From this passage, people finally have a general understanding of the ins and outs of this mysterious actuarial model.  It turns out that this processor was jointly developed by Taiyu and Motorola, and the product code name was mostly taken by Taiyu Technology, which is why it has such distinctive Chinese characteristics.  But after the first problem is solved, the next question comes again: Who is the developer of Actuarial Type 1?  From the perspective of inertial thinking, everyone tends to believe that the developer and manufacturer of the processor are Motorola. Taiyu Technology may be just the investor and has put forward its own requirements for the computing power of the processor, but does not have the ability to develop it by itself.  production capacity.  ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????When will the integrated circuit factory be built???The problems have not decreased with the unveiling of the actuarial type I veil, but have become more and more numerous.  Hundreds of reporters rushed to ask questions. In order to be heard by the people on the stage, everyone asked questions with a loud voice and a shouting volume.  It¡¯s a pity that Giles always had a poker face, with his hands folded in front of him, turning a blind eye and hearing nothing.  Mao Xiuliang didn't seem to hear the reporters' calls. He skipped this topic and went directly to the next content: "The second project to be announced today is led by us and Motorola, and we plan to establish a gaming alliance.  We provide development software based on Actuarial Type 1 processors for companies that are willing to use this processor as a platform for in-depth development. Video games are a booming new industry based on this, and we, Taiyu Technology, can do this alone.  It is definitely not enough. As the saying goes, if everyone adds firewood, more and more excellent game production companies can be attracted to join in, produce more and more good games, and make this market more prosperous. This is what we all share.  Wish. In order to show that we sincerely support more peers to join, Taiyu Technology is willing to provide the game engine of "Street Fighter" to developers and develop new fighting games on this basis  ¡± Boom!  He could no longer speak. All the reporters rushed towards him like crazy. Everyone was opening and closing their mouths to say something. They wanted to insert the microphones in their hands directly into Mao Xiuliang's mouth.  A dozen security guards stood shoulder to shoulder in a row, with their knees slightly bent and their shoulders forward, making pushing movements, but nothing could stop them from squeezing forward a little bit.  Journalists can¡¯t help but go crazy.  "Street Fighter" has been on the market for more than 20 days, causing a frenzy that swept across the island, and spread to a wider area with the cargo ships one after another.  "Street Fighter" is not the world's first fighting game, but it is definitely the most successful fighting game in the world so far!  ??Every player who has played it will be deeply fascinated by it and forget to eat and sleep.  Its popularity is so high that it has become a phenomenon and a hot topic of discussion in newspapers, media and society. Everyone from the 70-year-old man to the young child knows about it.  Professional media, newspapers, and magazines have written dozens of professional reports on the innovative improvements of fighting games, the development of the game industry, and software algorithms.  Non-related media people have written more articles about its gameplay, game modes, and even fighting combinations, attack tips, etc., and published them in various professional or non-professional magazines, newspapers, and printed publications.  It supports many people who make a living by writing manuscripts.  Such a successful game software is basically a golden chicken laying eggs. Taiyu Technology is actually willing to sell it?  When they were sure that they heard correctly, they immediately caused a huge commotion, and hundreds of people rushed forward regardless of the security guards' obstruction.  The surging crowd overturned the neatly arranged seats.  The reporter wanted to ask why Taiyu was going to be sold, and those working in the game industry wanted to ask when it would be sold. Others asked what a game engine was. Everyone was shouting so loudly that no one could hear anyone else's voice, and the scene was chaotic.  A ball.  Mao Xiuliang, who was prepared, was frightened by this momentum. He hurriedly answered some questions that everyone was concerned about through the microphone as quickly as possible.  Only now did everyone know what a game engine is.  The so-called engine is actually some well-written fixed-function programs, such as AI algorithms, judgment of fighting skills, etc.  In the past, game software was written by developers starting from the most basic programs, and the characters, scenes, and algorithms were all developed by themselves.  In this way, the workload is very large. After the writing is completed, long-term debugging is required to find out the errors and apply patches, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.  Sometimes the game has not yet been launched because others have already developed the same game, players are tired of playing it, and the market has declined, so research and development has to be stopped, causing huge losses to the developers.  The game engine that Taiyu Technology agreed to sell is based on the game "Street Fighter". It separates its AI algorithm, intelligent judgment, script execution, etc., and leaves the corresponding program interface after packaging.  When game developers get this engine, they don't need to develop from the most basic level. They only need to change the character appearance and scene, and then leave the core computing part to the engine to complete, and they can create a game on the same level as "Street Fighter"  fighting game.  In terms of development difficulty and speed, it is much faster and there will be fewer bugs!  After understanding Mao Xiuliang¡¯s explanation, everyone who wants to engage in game software development is excited. This is the greatest gospel.  As long as you purchase the game engine, what will happen??One person can complete simple tasks such as character, scene texture, and level setting. As long as the balance of the characters is well done, it is not a problem at all to develop a high-quality fighting game of a considerable level.  Taiyu Technology has restored its vitality to game software developers who have lost their market due to Taiyu's high-level games.  Many game development companies that are facing the threat of bankruptcy cannot help but feel grateful to Taiyu Company.  Those pirates who temporarily went out of business because of the Taiyu revision and were temporarily unable to get new processors, and were unable to grab the first bite of "Street Fighter", the resentment in their hearts also dissipated.  Let¡¯s just say that Taiyu Company never eats alone, so how could it be possible to completely cut off everyone¡¯s livelihood.  As long as this game engine spreads, fighting games will flourish in a short period of time, and good games will emerge one after another.  By then, are you still worried that there won¡¯t be any good games that sell well?  And this is also the best time for their pirates to transform!  In the past, only one company, Taiyu, developed games. No matter how fun and excellent they were, compared to the ever-expanding global game market, they were still too monotonous and the number was too small.  Nowadays, there are more game developers, and the game software they develop must find hardware partners. In this way, pirates like them can also take the opportunity to shed the skin of pirates that everyone wants to beat and transform.  Are you a regular game production company?  Thanks to Taiyu Technology, their contribution to the global game industry is really great!  Of course, while they were silently thinking about the good news of Taiyu Technology, combined with the news of the previous sale of processors, they suddenly realized: This is actually another reshuffle!  Processor and game engine, these two crucial cores, Taiyu Technology has a considerable say in.  Taiyu Technology can decide who to sell to and who not to sell to.  Therefore, he can selectively sell processors and game engines to drive out those who are dissatisfied and grudged against Taiyu Technology from the global game market, leaving behind those players who recognize Taiyu Technology¡¯s leadership and are willing to become Taiyu Technology¡¯s allies.  , and finally achieve the goal of monopolizing the global game industry!  On the surface, there are many more games on the market that are not developed by Taiyu Technology, but behind the scenes, these games are actually twins derived from Taiyu Technology.  As a result, Taiyu Technology¡¯s monopoly position is not reduced, but even greater!  "Insidious, really insidious!"  While everyone is smiling and trying to please Taiyu Technology, they also understand in their hearts that Taiyu Technology has finally transformed from an ordinary game developer to an international giant in the game industry and has begun to give up the monopoly that others can see through at a glance.  Techniques, began to use more secretive methods, behind the scenes, to control the development of the industry.  This is the trick used by those giants, and now Taiyu Technology has also learned it.  Mao Xiuliang dealt with a lot of people's inquiries and finally found the opportunity to announce the last and most important announcement of the day: "The third thing in today's press conference is to announce something to all the media friends:  That is Taiyu Technology, which will reach a strategic alliance with Motorola on mobile communications to jointly develop wireless communications technology. To this end, we will jointly invest in establishing a wireless communications equipment manufacturing base in Hong Kong" Roar!  Bang!  He didn¡¯t even have time to finish his words when a roar louder than the previous two booms sounded in the hall.  The chair that had just been lifted up was overturned again. Everyone ignored the chair that fell on the ground. They stepped on it and rushed forward. Many chairs were trampled to pieces.  The rostrum in front of Mao Xiuliang was turned upside down at the first moment, and then he felt as if he was surrounded by wild beasts.  Countless reporters with red eyes yelled at him with ferocious faces, spitting on his face. The microphones in their hands kept poking his face, and two microphones even touched his front teeth.  If the reporters felt crazy before, now they are completely crazy. It is not only the reporters who rush up, but also other people nearby, whether they are men or women, all rushing towards Mao Xiuliang with their teeth and claws.  A reporter who was squeezed to the ground didn't even care about how many times he was stepped on. He rolled forward on his hands and feet on the ground, shouting and had no idea what he was talking about.  A female reporter's originally dignified hairstyle was torn apart, and her eyeshadow and lipstick were smeared in the crowd. With her hair disheveled, she rushed over, holding the microphone as if holding a blasting tube, and suddenly stabbed Mao Xiuliang on the cheek, almost losing her  Several of his teeth were knocked out.  The reporters were furious.?Not only was Mao Xiuliang frightened and panicked, he desperately tore their hands apart in an attempt to break out of the encirclement.  Even Giles, who was used to seeing all kinds of big scenes, was so frightened that he turned pale and didn't dare to say a word. He turned around and ran back before the reporters could rush up to him.  Crazy, they are all crazy!
