Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 1 Do you want to change the world?
One morning in the spring of 1993, in an ordinary residential house in Tokyo, a light in the attic has not been extinguished for a long time.
In this attic, there is a person sitting in front of a lamp assembling some kind of electronic equipment.

Beside him, all kinds of circuit originals were piled up scatteredly, and some octopus balls packaging boxes that were eaten were piled up in a mess.

In the dark part of the room, there was a girl sleeping deeply with her hands and pillows. Judging from the dark bags at the corners of her eyes, it was obvious that the girl had stayed up late for a long time.

And those who continued to work hard while sitting in front of the lamp continued to assemble electronic components as if tirelessly.

The soldering pen next to him was still steaming slightly hot, and from time to time this person would pick up the soldering pen and add various strange circuit components to the circuit board.

Finally, when the bell rang at six, the person in front of the lamp let out a long breath.

"Finally finished!"

The man in front of the lamp made a voice of excitement that could not be concealed.

The girl behind him was slightly awakened by the sound, and she rubbed her eyes and stood up to look at the man in the direction of the lamp.

"Bamboo You-sang, is it finally finished?"

Zhu Yuxing, who was in front of the lamp, shuddered slightly, and then he turned around holding the ugly-looking circuit board in his hand.

He waved the rough circuit board in his hand ostentatiously and said, "Yes, it's done! The world's first home game console is born!"

Girls don't understand any home game consoles.

But she understood one thing.

The work is finally over!
She felt like she shouldn't have taken the job because it was simply not done by humans!
About four weeks ago, Airi Hayazawa had just graduated from college.

Just after graduation, she was reluctant to follow her parents' arrangement and find a man to marry and be a housewife.

She wants to have her own life.

It's just that reality hits people hard.

In this era of economic depression, it is getting harder and harder to find a job, especially for a female college student like her who has just graduated, her future is even more bleak.

The most important thing is that at the beginning, her head was hot, and she majored in electrical engineering in college.

It is even more conceivable that such a professional girl wants to find a job in a place like Tokyo.

As far as she knows, all the female classmates in her major got married right after graduation. It seems that women majoring in electrical engineering are only suitable for the 'job' of being a housewife and getting married after graduation.

No company would ever want a female electrical and electronic engineer.

It was at this time that Zhu Yuxing appeared in front of him.

It's the guy who's been making game consoles just now.

She still remembered that scene that day.

The man stood in front of him who just failed the interview with a smile on his face.

Then his first words were: "Want to change the world?"

This sentence is not important, but the next sentence is very important.

"The daily salary is [-] yen, with a daily settlement."

This is very tempting for girls who have been unable to find a job.

Of course, she was also vigilant about whether this man was doing anything illegal.

But after she carefully followed Zhu Youxing to his house, he found out that the other party just wanted to help him create a strange device.

A device that connects to a TV and controls the machine through two odd-looking things.

Now, after four full weeks of work day and night, she and Zhu Yuxing have finally made what Zhu Yuxing envisioned.

Now Zhu Yuxing holds the results of their four weeks of hard work.

Looking at the circuit board that didn't look very beautiful at first glance, Airi Hayazawa wanted to complain, what kind of weird thing was this?

Fortunately, I didn't waste my studies when I was in school, at least something like this can still be done with reluctance.

Zhu Yuxing seemed very excited.

He excitedly took the finished circuit board and ran towards the TV.

Even if he accidentally steps on a lot of electronic components that can make people's feet hurt, he doesn't care at all.

Coming to the TV, Zhu Yuxing began to skillfully pick up a video cable and plug it into the TV and the exposed circuit board socket.

Hayasawa Airi is no longer sleepy.

Even though she really wanted to sleep now, she wanted to see how much fun it was after four weeks of hard work.

In the past four weeks, Airi Hayazawa, apart from making this thing with Take Yusei, often listened to Take Yusei to introduce the interesting thing about this thing.

"This game console can bring new and interesting things to the world, and of course, it can also bring a huge market."

"Game consoles will also become an indispensable form of entertainment for human beings in the future, and both men, women and children will love video games."

Airi Hayazawa had no idea about this, but since Takeyusei described it like this, she would have some expectations.

"Okay, let's officially welcome the moment when home consoles come to this world."

At this moment, Zhu Yuxing gently closed his eyes, as if he was doing some kind of ritual, and his expression seemed to be sublimated.

This guy is actually pretty good looking.

Airi Hayazawa thought at this moment.

drop.

On that ugly circuit board, the red light for boot is on.

At the same time, the TV screen is also lit at this moment.

Hayasawa Airi also got closer because of curiosity.

From the perspective of Zhu Yuxing, the music sound that he was once very familiar with sounded slowly.

Lights, lights, lights, lights, lights, lights up!
It was an unforgettable memory that belonged to the good moments in his memory.

Super Mario Bros.

Several English words that Zhu Yuxing was very familiar with appeared on the TV.

"Oh, I remember this, this is something you made on the computer." Airi Hayasawa pointed at the TV screen with slightly widened eyes.

Immediately afterwards, she saw Zhu Yuxing pick up what he named a gamepad and start manipulating the screen on the TV.

On the TV, a plumber with a big nose, a little stout, wearing suspenders, jumped in the picture following the manipulation of Take Yusei.

The height of this jump is like a rabbit.

Airi Hayazawa blinked.

If she knew modern buzzwords, she would have said this:
That's it?

A device that remotely controls the characters in the TV screen through the device?
What's so fun about this thing?

Airi Hayasawa couldn't imagine it at all.

Electronic games.

This is something completely foreign to this world.

However, it is no stranger to Zhu Yuxing.

Because in the world before I crossed over, video games have long become one of the most important entertainment methods for people in that world.

Zhu Yuxing is a traveler.

He is a Chinese from 2020.

In the days before crossing over, he was running around looking for work in the hot summer.

The only solace at home when he can't find a job every day is these video games.

And that day he suddenly fell into a coma on the road.

After he woke up, he traveled to Tokyo in the 90s. At the same time, he also had a brand new identity, an unemployed rich second generation named Zhu Youxing.

Newcomers and new books, thank the readers for their appreciation, it would be better if there are free recommended tickets and collections!
