Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 140

Now I don't know how many reporters are secretly cursing their bosses.

Curse them for not knowing how to be flexible, and now they are begging the director of their own TV station to change their term quickly, so maybe the rules can be changed.

This is a rare social upsurge.

At the moment when Japan's economic bubble burst, it is very rare for so many people to go to the street to buy goods and wait in line for a day or two or more.

Needless to say, the Nikkei newspaper.

They are very protective of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

Seeing the rapid development of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, I began to exaggerate the benefits of video games.

Praise video games for revitalizing stagnant Japanese society.

He praised Youxing Electronic Entertainment Co., Ltd. as an excellent enterprise, and its president is young and promising.

At the same time, the group of economists also boasted that perhaps this may be a sign of Japan's emergence from the quagmire of a burst bubble.

The Japanese people have felt that they have lost years of time, and they have been so prosperous that they have fallen to the bottom in a blink of an eye.

However, Zhu Yuxing knew that these were all bluffs.

The mere video game can't affect the entire Japanese economic structure, at most it makes it a little active.

But this seems to be the effect of the butterfly effect.

I have changed a lot of people.

Of course, he also hopes that he can change more people.

However, in the sales of SFC, it is not particularly obvious.

The sales volume in the first week was 40.

This is already quite amazing.

This also seems to prove that the Japanese people still have spending power, but they lack something that can really impress them.

This is also the result of a year of hard work to develop the market.

This is really not easy. If you work hard in the future, you can make some popular top games in Japan reach the sales volume of one million in the first week, which is basically the sales limit of the entire Japanese local area. It's very difficult.

After all, there are so many Japanese citizens.

The average scores of the four first-time games are also good. The sales of Contra 3 and Super Mario World together exceeded 30, which means that 70.00% of people who buy game consoles will choose these two games, and they are also the choice of colleagues.

Other Mario drawings and Zero Cars sold less.

The Type Zero car sold close to 20 yuan, and the results were not bad.

There are only [-] Mario drawings.

This game is more of an experimental nature, and Zhu Yuxing doesn't really expect much revenue from this game. How much money can be made is counted. Originally, the development cost of this game was not high.

Then Zhu Yuxing looked at the results of other peers, and looked at their current sales of game consoles and games.

The first is the PN game console.

The release of SFC put it on the back burner.

According to industry estimates, the weekly sales are probably not more than [-] units, which is indeed the worst week.

Not to mention game sales, there is no data to count the sales of these games.

Suri Electronics didn't make any special struggles, and let himself be ravaged by Yuxing Electronics Entertainment like this, and he didn't even resist.

SFC's influence is indeed great, and it's really a loss to confront it head-on, so it's better to skip this competition and wait for the next opportunity to counterattack.

The same is true of several other companies that want to make money. They have no response to the sale of SFC, and they are completely flat.

Zhu Yuxing felt a little bored, but he didn't expect them to give up resistance like this.

How many times do you come here symbolically?

It's not that they don't want to come, it's that Zhu Youxing almost monopolized all the advertising space in those days with the money they spent.

But it is estimated that when SFC sales gradually stabilize, they will start to try to counterattack.

However, there are rumors in the industry, that is, rumors from the uncle's party that Suri Electronics seems to be planning to make a handheld computer.

And their performance will be better, only in this way can they have a certain advantage, otherwise under the same conditions, they really can't compete with Zhuyouxing.

However, the development of the new home game console is not very active, and I don't know if it is well kept secret and has not been discovered.

Zhu Youxing thought for a moment and felt that he still had to supervise these competitors.

They can't be left lying flat like that.

He also expects to touch these people to cross the river.

He has to speed up the development of game consoles, otherwise he will not be able to keep up with the times. When will he be able to play the real 3A masterpiece?

So Takeyouxing called Natsume Yasushi, who was in charge of marketing, over.

"Xia Musang, I have a new task to teach you, but this task is rather special."

As soon as Natsume Kanglong came in, Zhu Yuxing gave him a task directly.

"Boss, you said."

"Find some people, try to use anonymity on the Internet, hide the IP address and all information, and then leak some information to the outside world."

Natsume Kanglong was a little confused by Zhu Yuxing's words: "Leaked news? What news?"

"Let's just say that we are starting to develop a more powerful game console. It is expected to be a game console that directly manufactures 32-bit chips, and is ready to enter 3D graphics games and bring innovation to the video game industry again."

Zhu Youxing paused, then said again: "By the way, find a few suitable chip companies, contact both domestic and foreign, make a phone call and ask for warmth, and then take the opportunity to inspect their company's latest models. Digital chips, and then figure out how to 'unintentionally' take some spy photos and distribute them online."

Natsume Yasushi opened his eyes slightly.

"President, are you serious? We are really developing the latest game console, and it's really 32-bit. Isn't it just letting the opponent respond by taking the initiative to leak secrets?"

"That's right, that's what I'm going to do. They're too slow. I have to hurry up and spur them on." Zhu Yuxing showed a mysterious smile.

"Too...too slow?"

What Natsume Yasushi must admit is that he often cannot guess some of the strategies of Zhu Yuxing.

Now the company's in-house engineering development team has indeed begun work on a newer console.

Although they are just getting started, Take Yusei has given a clear path and they are already starting to move towards their goal.

But he really couldn't understand the fact that Zhu Yuxing took the initiative to leak the secret to the outside world.

Only Zhu Yuxing himself can know what he wants to do with this kind of thing.

He had to let a company like Suri Electronics step on the thunder first.

Because 32-bit performance game consoles are very close to the technological level of the current world.

It is not difficult to develop such a game console, but the difficult thing is how much should you sell it after the development of the game console is completed.

Now the price of game consoles is generally in the range of 8000 to 1W yen.

This is because it is very economical to study [-]-bit and [-]-bit game opportunities at the world's technological level, and these two chips in this period are also not too expensive.

But 32-bit chips are different. More than 80.00% of computers in this era still use 32-bit CPUs.

This price is no longer a petty fight. If you don't pay attention, the cost may directly skyrocket several times. Zhuyouxing has to let the competitors test the user's tone first.

See if they can accept the higher price.

If you don't accept it, then you can hold back for another two years. If you accept it, then you will enter the arena decisively.

In fact, Zhu Yuxing treated the competitors as guinea pigs.

Let them test the players' ability to bear, and then they will attack and swallow the biggest cake.

Sometimes it is not very wise to be aggressive all the time in the front, and you need to retreat at the right time and let others rush ahead for a while.

Cars don’t just like to do this. The rear-ranked car follows behind the front car, which can reduce wind resistance and be ready to overtake at any time. On the contrary, the car in front will be apprehensive, worrying that its ranking will be overtaken at any time.
