Super Tycoon

Looking at overseas sales statistics, Zhang Weiguang was delighted from ear to ear. At the beginning, he thought that the overseas sales of Zhiduoxing G would not be very good, and maybe hundreds of thousands of units would top the sky. Isn’t that how their handhelds just started selling.

But the current data shows that the sales of Zhiduoxing G will definitely exceed one million, and may even be higher. Even the sales of Zhiduoxing Z are also rising steadily.

Zhiduoxing Z, a handheld with a black and white screen, is extremely cheap and cannot replace the cassette, but with some games like Super Tetris and low power consumption, it is gradually favored by many players. noticed.

It is undeniable that Nintendo's GB is actually more fun, and Sega and other companies have more game choices for their handhelds, but most of the games are actually not very popular.

Nintendo can sell tens of millions of copies for just one Tetris. Super Tetris, which is directly solidified into the machine and has more changes, quickly gained some fans.

"Mr. Zhang, several of our factories are operating in three shifts and are producing at full capacity. However, the Zhiduoxing G produced can only be supplied to overseas markets, and the mainland and Eastern European markets have no supply capacity."

Zhang Weiguang tapped his finger on the table: "What did Zhang Yang tell you before?"

"He said he would wait until his summer vacation to decide."

"Then just wait." Zhang Weiguang is very clear that in terms of sales, he is not a bit behind his son.

Although he has read many books on management and sales in the past two years, he feels that he understands them every time, but when he actually operates them, there are many unexpected things.

"Understood. The Beijing Zhiduoxing has acquired two more factories, and the production line is being remodeled. Would you like to go and have a look?"

"No, isn't there Duan Yongping over there?" Zhang Weiguang waved his hand, and if his son believed in Duan Yongping, then he believed it too. Anyway, the financial power is still in your hands, so what else to worry about?

His son must have drawn a big cake for Duan Yongping, he didn't believe it, there are still people who would put aside the cake in front of them and make another one themselves.

"Wait, is there a report in the capital, bring it here and let me have a look."

Zhang Weiguang has not been in charge of the Beijing Zhiduoxing business for a long time. He heard from his son that the sales of Zhiduoxing learning machines have increased significantly this year, so the profit should be quite a lot, right?

Ok? So much money has been invested in the research and development of this new product, but what about the new product?

Zhang Weiguang grabbed the phone on the desk and called the capital.

"Hi, I'm Zhang Weiguang."

"Mr. Zhang, I'm Duan Yongping, what instructions do you have?"

"I would like to ask, you have invested a lot in new product research and development in the past few months, is there any progress?"

"Already have." Duan Yongping replied, "The prototype is undergoing final debugging, mainly to test whether the system software is easy to use and whether there are any mistakes."

"Mr. Zhang, if you are free, you can come to the capital to have a look, or I have finished the test here, and I will bring the prototype to Bingcheng to find you. Well, Mr. Zhang said that we are going to launch a new brand. Does Mr. Zhang know what it will be called? "

"Ah? New brand? You can ask Zhang Yang about this later. He will take the college entrance examination in the past two days. If you have anything to do, just tell me. Some work can be delayed for two days."

college entrance examination.

Duan Yongping lost his mind for a moment. The term college entrance examination is associated with the bosses of some companies,

It's not surprising, but it's usually the children of the family who take the exam. This is the first time he heard that the boss took the college entrance exam in person!

"Well, I'll wait for the prototype to be debugged in two days, and report to Mr. Zhang face to face."

"Okay. At that time, the new machine will be produced in your factory. In the future, learning machines will also be produced in your own factory as much as possible. The sales of game machines here are rising steadily, and the foundry may be too late."

Zhang Yang said that the sales of Zhiduoxing G, at least in the third quarter, will not be too bad. The workers in the factory work overtime every day, and it is also very hard.

Although overtime pay was paid as required, and the income of the workers has increased a lot, once a person only has two points and one line between the factory and the house every day, the strings in his mind will be too tight.

Moreover, overtime pay is much higher than normal wages, which also increases their labor costs.

"I understand that after this product has no technical problems and can be mass-produced, I will make a second-generation upgraded product of the learning machine."

Now there are more and more manufacturers of learning machines, and the market share of Zhiduoxing learning machines has once again dropped to the early 80s.

Everyone is using the banner of 486 now. In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that this 486 is just a gimmick. It is completely different from the computer 486, and the performance gap is not the slightest bit.

And they not only make changes on the chip, but also make changes on the appearance design and the keyboard. If you use a mechanical keyboard, I will use a rubber keyboard, and now the technology of the keyboard is also improving. Every change has a great impact on the industry.

"Okay, Zhang Yang said that he respects your choice, and I have no objection. If you have any difficulties, just bring them up, and I will help you coordinate and solve them."

Zhang Weiguang also thinks that it is good to have someone like Duan Yongping. He doesn't have to take care of the learning machine project. Duan Yongping manages it very well, and sales and sales are rising steadily.

If it is not for the research and development of new products during this period, I believe that the market share will not decline.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Weiguang felt that nothing was wrong, so he ran to the product R\u0026D office, stood behind others, and watched the group of people typing on the keyboard.

After watching for a minute, he felt dizzy.

What is this? Is this how their company's games were developed? People who understand computers are really powerful.

Before, he felt that game consoles were more important than games. They made money by producing game consoles. After reading overseas sales statistics, he changed his mind. It turns out that games are more profitable.

No wonder their Zhiduoxing G is a bit stronger than SFC in terms of hardware, but it is a little worse than 3DO, and it is also not as good as those other game consoles that will be released soon. However, my son still let them debug and put it on the market.

This idea is a reference to Nintendo's development model. Our hardware may not be the best, maybe not even top-notch, but our games are the best to play.

The most fundamental purpose of buying a game console is to play games. If your game isn’t fun, what’s the use of a good game console?

Before his son said that he would give Li Junsheng their game sales dividends, he still felt a little distressed, but now he doesn't think so. He hoped that Li Junsheng and the others could develop more and more fun games, even if the dividends were doubled, it would be Zhiduoxing that earned more.

He looked at his watch, ah, his son's exam in the afternoon should be almost over, he has to go home quickly, and ask his son how the exam is going.
