Mist City Arts and Science University.
In the Administration Building, inside the principal's office.
Sitting in front of Ding Yue's desk was An Yujia, the CEO of the Feiyue Group.
"Principal Ding, we've already made some plans regarding the creation of the whole industrial chain for 3nm chips, as well as industries like virtual game cabins and virtual game helmets. We plan to invest in three phases, with the first phase requiring an investment of 5 billion."
An Yujia was introducing some "business plans" of the Feiyue Group to Principal Ding.
Currently, Mist City Arts and Science University has developed the 3nm process lithography machine, and the manufacturing of virtual game cabins and virtual game helmets can also begin. Naturally, An Yujia is responsible for the manufacturing tasks.
"And what about the subsequent phases?"
Ding Yue asked, "Is 5 billion enough?"
"5 billion is probably not enough. The initial investment of 5 billion in the first phase is just our estimate after considering costs and market research. However, we anticipate that the market response after the release of the virtual game cabin and virtual game helmet will be better than our current estimates, so if it's not enough, we'll add more in the second phase."
An Yujia explained, "Anyway, after the initial investment, we can basically establish a complete production chain."
"Okay."
After listening, Ding Yue felt that An Yujia's arrangement was quite good.
"For the subsequent phases, if the market response is excellent, we plan to invest an additional 10 billion in the second phase. If the expectations are not met, then we'll add 5 billion, and 2 billion for the third phase, totaling 12 billion. Of course, we estimate that the response will be excellent, and an estimated 25 billion yuan will be invested."
An Yujia added.
"Hmm."
Ding Yue now had a rough idea in mind.
This 25 billion yuan investment is solely for the production and creation of chips, virtual game cabins, and virtual game helmet equipment required for the "virtual world."
"What about the pricing?"
Ding Yue asked again.
Since the investment side was planned by An Yujia, there clearly needs to be a discussion on the pricing of the virtual game cabins and virtual game helmets as well.
"Principal Ding, regarding pricing, we haven't yet obtained a lot of cost information, so it's difficult to determine. However, we've conducted some surveys."
An Yujia shook her head slightly and said.
"Tell me."
"For the virtual game cabin, which is truly a product of ground-breaking technology, the price can't be too low. We estimate the selling price to be at least above 200,000 yuan per unit."
An Yujia outlined Feiyue Group's estimated price for the virtual game cabin.
"Above 200,000 yuan, yes, that's appropriate."
Ding Yue thought a price above 200,000 yuan was reasonable.
After all, it's a top-tier virtual game cabin equipped with advanced technology like 3nm chips, precision mechanical processing, neuron sensing technology, and the best computer technology.
"What about the price for the virtual game helmet, shouldn't it be lower?"
Ding Yue asked.
After all, there's still a distinction between virtual game cabins and virtual game helmets.
"For the virtual game helmet, we plan to set the price in the range of 50,000 to 100,000 yuan. What do you think, Principal Ding?"
An Yujia proposed a price range and asked Principal Ding for his opinion.
"That's very reasonable."
Ding Yue smiled and said, "With this price, avid gamers will surely be willing to buy it. Even regular people would be able to afford it after working, and with a virtual game helmet, they can enter a virtual world with unlimited possibilities. Naturally, it's a worthwhile purchase."
"What about the overseas pricing?"
Ding Yue suddenly thought.
The prices discussed with An Yujia just now were naturally domestic prices, meant for their own people.
But as for overseas pricing, it certainly has to differ from domestic pricing.
After all, those overseas tech companies sell phones, computers, and other products to us at relatively high prices, so if foreigners want to experience Feiyue Group's created virtual world, they'll have to spend more money.
No way around it.
Who controls the technology? We used to suffer from technological woes and losses, and now it's the foreigners' turn to experience the same.
"Overseas pricing... Principal Ding, what is your suggestion?"
An Yujia wanted to hear Principal Ding's views on overseas pricing first.
"When those foreigners sell us things, are they cheap or not?"
Ding Yue asked.
"Expensive, and including taxes, it's even pricier."
An Yujia replied.
"Whose technology is it?"
"Of course, it's ours."
"So if foreigners want to experience it, shouldn't they spend a bit more money?"
"Indeed, they should, and foreigners' income is generally higher compared to ordinary people in our country, so we should definitely charge them more."
An Yujia reasonably said.
"Hmm, let's settle it that way."
Ding Yue and An Yujia were of one mind, their thoughts were basically aligned.
Aren't you wealthy, foreigners? Aren't you from developed countries? When we sell you our virtual game cabins and virtual game helmet equipment, it certainly won't come cheap.
Otherwise, are we going to let you foreigners take advantage of us?
