Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

One morning in the spring of 1993, in an ordinary residential house in Tokyo, a light in the attic had not been extinguished for a long time

And in this attic, there is a person sitting in front of a desk lamp and assembling some kind of electronic equipment.

Beside him, various original circuit components were piled up scatteredly, and some boxes of eaten octopus balls were piled up in a mess.

In the dark of the room, there was a girl sleeping soundly with her hands on the pillow. Judging from the dark bags under her eyes, it was obvious that the girl had been up late for a long time.

And those who continue to sit in front of the desk lamp and work hard continue to assemble electronic components as if they are tireless.

The soldering pen next to it was still steaming slightly, 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 clock struck six o'clock, the person in front of the lamp let out a long breath.

"Finally finished!"

The man in front of the desk lamp let out an unconcealed excited voice.

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

"Zhuyou-san, is it finally finished?"

Zhu Youxing's body in front of the desk lamp trembled slightly, and then he turned around with the ugly-looking circuit board in his hand.

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

Girls can't understand any home game consoles.

But she understands one thing.

The job is finally over!

She felt like she shouldn't have taken the job because it's just not human!

About four weeks ago, Hayazawa Airi had just graduated from college.

After she just graduated, she was unwilling to follow the arrangement of her parents and find a man to marry and become a housewife.

She wants to have her own life.

It's just that the reality is extremely shocking.

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

The most important thing is that at the beginning, when she had a hot head, she majored in electronics and 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 knew, all the female students in her major got married right after graduation. It seemed that women majoring in electrical engineering were only suitable for the 'job' of getting married right after graduation and becoming housewives.

No company will want a female electrical and electronic engineer at all.

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

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

She still remembers that scene that day.

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

Then the first thing he said was: "Want to change the world?"

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

"The daily salary is 10,000 yen, and the daily settlement."

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

Of course, she was also wary of whether this man was doing something illegal.

But when she cautiously followed Zhu Youxing to his house, he found that the other party just wanted him to help make a weird device.

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

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

What Zhu Youxing is holding now is the fruit of their four weeks of hard work.

Looking at the unattractive circuit board, Hayazawa Airi really wanted to complain, what kind of weird thing is this?

Fortunately, I didn't waste my studies when I was in school, at least I can barely help to make such things.

But Zhu Youxing seemed very excited.

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

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

When he came to the TV, Zhu Youxing skillfully picked up a video cable and plugged it into the TV and the socket on the exposed circuit board.

Hayazawa Airi didn't feel sleepy at all now.

Even though she is sleepy now, she wants to see how much fun this thing that she has worked hard for for four weeks is really fun.

During the four weeks, apart from making this thing together with Takeyuho, Hayazawa Airi often listened to Takeyuho to introduce the interesting features of 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. No matter men, women or children, they will love video games."

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

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

At this moment, Zhu Youxing closed his eyes lightly, as if doing some kind of ritual, his expression became sublimated.

This guy actually looks pretty good.

Hayazawa Airi was thinking so at the moment.

drop.

On that ugly circuit board, the red light that signifies power on is on.

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

Hayazawa Airi also got closer because of curiosity.

And from Zhu Youxing's perspective, the music he was very familiar with sounded slowly.

Deng Deng Deng ~ wait for the light ~ board!

It was an unforgettable memory that belonged to the beautiful moments in his memory.

Super Mario Bros.

A few English words that Zhu Youxing was extremely familiar with appeared on the TV.

"Oh, I remember this. This is something you made on the computer." Hayazawa Airi slightly opened her eyes and pointed at the TV screen.

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

On the TV, a plump plumber with a big nose and wearing suspenders danced in the screen following Zhu Youxing's manipulation.

The height of this jump is like that of a rabbit.

Hayazawa Airi blinked her eyes.

Had she known the modern idiom, she would have said:

That's it?

A device that remotely controls the characters on the TV screen through the device?

What's so funny about this thing?

Hayazawa Airi couldn't imagine it at all.

Electronic games.

This is something completely foreign to this world.

However, it is no stranger to Zhuyou Xing.

Because in the world before I traveled, video games have long been one of the most important forms of entertainment for people in that world.

Zhu Youxing is a time traveler.

He is a Chinese from 2020.

In the days before time travel, he was running around looking for a job in the hot summer.

The only solace for him to go 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 1990s. At the same time, he also had a brand new identity, an unemployed rich second generation named Zhu Youxing.
