The previous processor could be handled like this.
But, this time, it's a whole new story for the processor of the new handheld console.
The performance of this new handheld console now belongs to the technological level that is currently popular in this era.
If Takayuki wants to get a piece of the pie from this processor production line, it's better to find several manufacturers and then choose the most suitable one.
However, this means that they won't be able to keep it a secret from their competitors.
On the day the tender was issued, major game companies immediately got wind of the situation at Takayuki's gaming entertainment company.
A brand-new processor, and it's the most advanced processor of the current era.
This is clearly preparing for a brand-new game console.
The gaming industry immediately began to focus on several major processor manufacturers because of Takayuki's actions.
But they didn't need to investigate too hard.
As long as they could roughly guess which manufacturer won the bid from the production line of the mech manufacturer's processor, and then roughly infer what kind of processor it was from that side's production line.
For game developers, they are happy because they can use more advanced technology to develop games.
Moreover, in line with the consistent style of Takayuki's gaming entertainment company, as soon as the new console is in development, they will start writing guidelines for developing new console games.
As long as the staff follow the new guidelines to develop games and purchase the development kits, they can systematically develop the games.
However, for companies developing game consoles like Takayuki, each one of them is not so happy.
Takayuki's gaming entertainment company plans to lead the world again.
As for Lilda Electronics, let's not talk about it for now, and Sui Electronics is once again falling behind.
They have just completed the development plan for their new console, and they have entered the final stage, which is equivalent to benchmarking against the GS1.
The GS1 used two 32-bit chips to create a pseudo-64-bit game console.
So they will directly use real 64-bit processors, and also two of them.
"You're 64-bit, I'm directly 128-bit, and the display performance is doubled."
Just didn't expect that the development plan for the new console from Takayuki's gaming entertainment company started again so quickly.
So Lilda's plan for the new game console was immediately halted.
The same goes for the RedFruit company.
Previously, they suffered losses due to the first-generation game console.
This time, they also plan to turn the tables.
Fortunately, their development has just entered the middle stage, so it's still possible to make temporary adjustments.
Whenever there is a little movement from Takayuki's gaming entertainment company, it immediately triggers waves throughout the industry.
This is the current influence of Takayuki's gaming entertainment company.
However, for the major processor manufacturers, the tender from Takayuki's gaming entertainment company represents profit.
Unlike other processor demands, Takayuki's gaming consoles have always been fashionable items.
The sales of each game console are in the tens of millions.
It can be said that as long as they secure the order from Takayuki's gaming entertainment company, they will have at least tens of millions of units in initial sales.
No processor manufacturer can ignore the number of these orders.
Previously, Takayuki didn't need to tender; he just made bulk purchases directly, which made other unrelated processor manufacturers envious.
But this time, using a tender process means that all processor manufacturers can compete on the same stage and compete for this large order together, so they dare not underestimate it.
As soon as the tender announcement was made, all processor manufacturers immediately called on their respective R&D teams to study the technical requirements in the tender announcement.
First of all, the demand in the tender announcement is for a smaller processor.
At the same time, the performance of the processor should be comparable to the current GS1.
The performance of the GS1 console is considered outdated by today's standards.
But if the processor is compressed to a very small size, that's another story.
The thing about processors is that the smaller they are compressed, the less power they require while maintaining their original performance, and this is a technological requirement that not just any company can achieve.
It must be a truly large processor manufacturer.
As a result, more than a dozen processor manufacturers were eliminated at once.
The estimated number of remaining manufacturers is only five who can meet the tender requirements.
These manufacturers, along with their R&D teams, stayed up for days to thoroughly study the tender announcement before carefully submitting their bids to Takayuki's gaming entertainment company.
This tender will be semi-public in nature.
First of all, many specific requirements of the tender will be made public to all processor manufacturers at the tender conference.
However, the manufacturers participating in the tender conference will also sign a new confidentiality agreement.
No one can disclose the specific content of this tender conference unless Takayuki's gaming entertainment company unilaterally decides to disclose some of the content.
This is normal, confidentiality is a common practice.
Especially for Takayuki's gaming entertainment company, in order to avoid creating too many competitors, it is necessary to keep things confidential in advance.
Even if this confidentiality can only be maintained temporarily, it is enough to keep competitors guessing for a long time.
In the end, a total of six companies submitted bids.
They are the top processor manufacturers from several developed countries in the world today.
Some manufacturers are companies that have made a name for themselves in the PC field, some specialize in the graphics field, and some are manufacturers who are developing towards mobile processors and have technological advantages in reducing the size of processors, so they have decided to join in.
Some of the rough contents of the tender announcement were quickly released on the internet.
The first thing players learned about this news was a wave of heartache.
They feel sorry for their wallets.
Damn it, they have to fork out money for Takayuki's gaming entertainment company again.
But, they are willing to do so.
As long as it's a product from Takayuki's gaming entertainment company, they will accept it wholeheartedly.
They never doubt the creativity of Takayuki's gaming entertainment company, so they warmly welcome any product from them.
A new game console means that Takayuki's gaming entertainment company will bring them new surprises.
Among these players, there are naturally some more professional individuals who made some speculations based on the general content of the tender announcement, and some people have already made quite accurate guesses.
However, all of this is just speculation and not 100% accurate.
Specific details will have to wait for Takayuki's gaming entertainment company to announce.
After the application deadline for the tender, the six manufacturers were notified that the first tender conference would be held in October 2000, and the venue was set in the Japan region, the headquarters of Takayuki's gaming entertainment company.
Here, Takayuki's gaming entertainment company will have a stronger position.
