I want to make a game

Of course, Liu Zhiyuan would not squeeze the Oriental Pearl away out of the blue, nor did he want to squeeze it away. After all, it would be a facade for future generations of China. He wanted to cooperate with the Oriental Pearl.

Yang Jianguo saw that Liu Zhiyuan was silent, fearing that he might have something in mind.

"Zhiyuan, if your company is not large in scale, you can build it in front of the TV tower."

Yang Jianguo drew a spot in front of the Oriental Pearl Tower for Liu Zhiyuan.

Liu Zhiyuan's Han Dynasty actually didn't use much space at all. He would definitely not move the factory back. There is currently no nutrients here that they can absorb.

He wants to build this place into a theme park of the Han Dynasty, a Chinese Akihabara. He wants to replace the CES trade show, and he wants to make this place a holy land for electronic products in the future. The space is too small and not enough.

"Uncle, it's not enough."

Yang Jianguo looked embarrassed. He really couldn't make the decision in the TV tower. This was an order from above.

"Uncle, do you know Akihabara in Japan?"

Yang Jianguo naturally knows about Akihabara, Asia's largest electronics city. It's impossible for him not to know about it.

"I want to build this place into China's Akihabara."

"you!"

Yang Jianguo could not imagine what it would be like to go to China from Akihabara. He only knew that it would be a huge investment.

"Also, uncle, do you know about Disney theme amusement parks?"

"You want to build a Disneyland here?"

Yang Jianguo asked himself that he was still very capable of enduring, but under Liu Zhiyuan's two words, he could no longer bear it.

Liu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Seeing Liu Zhiyuan shaking his head, Yang Jianguo's heart calmed down, but the next sentence made his heart beat faster again.

"I want to build a Han Dynasty theme amusement park!"

"Of course, I don't have much money now."

Only then did Yang Jianguo realize that Liu Zhiyuan's US$200 million was a lot, but it was only assets. Even if he had US$200 million in cash, he could not build either of them.

"Zhiyuan, you have to eat your food in one bite and don't take too big steps."

Liu Zhiyuan naturally understands this truth. The reason why he is anxious to enclose the land now is the land. Every time he delays for a year, the land will double. By the time he saves enough money for construction, the money will not be enough to buy the land.

"You have probably heard of my next game, Uncle Yang, right? This game will be released from August to October. It is conservatively estimated to bring Sega about 1 billion US dollars in revenue."

This is not Liu Zhiyuan's nonsense to deceive Yang Jianguo. The final sales volume of Sega MD was more than 20 million units, and this was despite Japan's complete failure.

Now the popularity of Might and Magic is no less than Super Mario 3, and the Japanese will definitely not fail again. Although he doesn't know the specific cost of MD, it will definitely not exceed 500 US dollars.

If Sega is full of confidence in the MD, it will not lose money selling it. Each unit will earn at least 50-200 US dollars. With the current popularity of Magic, the gimmick of the 16-bit console, and Liu Zhiyuan's subsequent publicity methods, in the short term

Selling 10 million units will be no problem at all.

This is just the console, games are where the money is made, and Might and Magic will definitely create the highest-priced cartridge in the gaming industry, starting at $100.

Liu Zhiyuan has calculated the cost of cassettes, which is about US$40. One cassette is about US$60 in income. People who buy MD consoles will definitely buy a Might and Magic cassette.

So it is no exaggeration at all to say that Liu Zhiyuan brought $1 billion in revenue to Sega.

Yang Jianguo was shocked by this figure. How could he easily earn US$1 billion?

"This is just for Sega. I should cooperate with Sony again this year. If nothing happens, I will earn enough money to develop the Han Dynasty theme park by the end of this year."

What he and Sony are planning to cooperate with are dancing machines. Dancing machines can also be classified as arcade machines. Arcade machines have different hosts, and the main source of money for arcade machines is the arcade machine itself.

Yang Jianguo could not imagine how Liu Zhiyuan could make so much money in one year by cooperating with Sony.

"Uncle, do you know arcade machines?"

Yang Jianguo nodded. He really didn't pay much attention to games before, but since Liu Zhiyuan barged into his life, he began to understand.

Liu Zhiyuan took out a cigarette.

"Can I smoke it?"

Because what comes next is a very big number, and even he can't stay calm.

"Smoke it."

Liu Zhiyuan handed him a cigarette, lit it for him, and then lit it himself and took a long puff.

"Arcade machines all start at US$10,000. Since most arcade machines cannot change games, those big manufacturers can only make money on the machines, at least half of each machine."

Yang Jianguo knew that arcade machines were expensive, but he never imagined how profitable they would be.

Liu Zhiyuan continued.

"If it is a popular exclusive game model, the price will be higher. Arcade machines like racing and motorcycle games cost more than 30,000 US dollars. And I am planning to cooperate with Sony to develop a special arcade machine."

The dance machine is undoubtedly a special model. This machine can change the music at most.

Yang Jianguo, the person who knew the most about Liu Zhiyuan's plan besides Li Huagui, frowned.

"Are you going to cooperate with Sony after leaving Sega? Is there enough time? Are you planning to release your handheld console next year?"

Liu Zhiyuan smiled.

"If I have nothing to do recently, I will have a phone call with Norio Ohga, the president of Sony."

Yang Jianguo frowned even deeper when he heard that he had become involved with Sony.

"Zhiyuan, I know you are capable, but you must be on guard against others. If Sega knows that you have gone with Sony, it will definitely affect your next plan."

Liu Zhiyuan could understand the meaning of Yang Jianguo's words. He was simply afraid that Sony would tell Sega that Liu Zhiyuan was now very close to them, and Sega would definitely take action against Liu Zhiyuan.

"Uncle, don't worry, Sony is hiding things even more closely than I am."

He didn't want to discuss too much about Sony with Yang Jianguo. If Yang Jianguo spilled the beans one day, he would be the unlucky one.

"Uncle, let's move on to the arcade machine. This arcade machine is a collaboration with Sony. My bottom line is a net profit of US$10,000 for each machine."

Previously, Liu Zhiyuan was talking about projects with hundreds of millions or billions of dollars, but suddenly it dropped to 10,000 US dollars. He was a little uncomfortable with it.

"$10,000 is not enough to build a theme park."

Yang Jianguo didn't understand, but Liu Zhiyuan knew clearly that earning $10,000 per arcade machine was already a money grab.

"Uncle, do you know how many units of the most popular arcade machine have been sold?"

Yang Jianguo shook his head. How could he have time to keep statistics on such things?

"520,000 units, profit of US$11.4 billion."

Liu Zhiyuan told a number that stunned him. The best-selling arcade machine was not the King of Fighters and Street Fighter that Chinese players later became familiar with, but Pac-Man. Of course, 520,000 units was not the current sales volume.

Liu Zhiyuan learned this data a few years ago. At that time, Liu Zhiyuan was also shocked by this number.
