Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 2 A Magical Parallel World

Zhu Youxing didn't adapt to this strange environment in the past few days, Zhu Youxing never imagined that he would really time travel one day.

At that time, his performance was also extremely weird.

If the parents of the original owner of this body were not on a long-term overseas vacation, they would definitely have discovered the abnormality of their child.

After adapting to it for about ten days, he gradually accepted the new identity, and at the same time began to familiarize himself with and receive all kinds of information in this world.

He came to Japan in the 1990s.

The family is relatively rich, and the original owner should have had a relatively happy life.

With a car and a house, and his parents are still alive, this is not a standard template for a protagonist.

But because of a broken love, he couldn't think about it and took an overdose of sleeping pills for a while, and the Zhu Youxing who traveled through came to the original owner with the same name and exactly the same appearance.

However, the original owner's surname was Zhuyou, and the traverser's surname was just Zhu.

After coming to this world, Zhu Youxing discovered some characteristics of this world.

First of all, this does not seem to be the Earth in the 1990s that I am familiar with.

Because the Internet has been completely popularized in the 1990s here.

The embryonic form of the mobile smart phone also has a general idea.

People's most important form of entertainment is only TV programs.

I don't know that a certain traveler has also come here to stir up wind and rain, making the entire TV entertainment industry very powerful, because the TV entertainment programs that are too advanced have squeezed out other entertainment industries with little room for survival.

Almost everyone has their own favorite programs. This is a bit like the short video hegemony period in Zhu Youxing's previous life, but this world TV entertainment occupies the absolute hegemony.

At the same time, the technological level of this era should basically be similar to that after the earth millennium that I was familiar with, but it happened in the early 1990s in this world.

In addition, there are many famous people and things in this world that Zhu Youxing has never even heard of.

It seems that this is a parallel world similar to the earth, which is roughly the same as my past, but there are some differences in small details.

However, what surprised Zhu Youxing the most was that the video game industry in this world is not well developed.

Can't say there is no, but it is relatively tepid.

The games available on the market all look very old-fashioned and quite boring.

For example, games such as Arkanoid, not even Tetris.

People are almost completely ruled by television entertainment, which is outrageous.

For a geek who used video games as a daily pastime in his previous life, this is completely intolerable.

However, I have to say that the TV entertainment programs in this world are indeed very advanced. People like him in the 1920s would occasionally be amazed by the TV programs.

Zhu Youxing, who traveled over here, has a good living environment. If he lives in this way of life, his parents' wealth is enough for him to squander his whole life. He doesn't have to think about work at all, and he can even make a little bit of money based on his familiar history. An extra bonus for the traveler's welfare.

But without video games, it's kind of intolerable.

So, Zhu Youxing thought that it would be better to make games by himself.

Even if people in this world don't like this thing, you can entertain yourself by making it, right?

So with such a mentality of giving it a try, he started the process of trying to make games.

During this period, he began to teach himself various electronic related knowledge.

It's a pity that progress is slow.

He can think of ways to write software programs, and he was more or less related to this work in his previous life.

However, electrical technology still has a little threshold, and it is not easy to make any progress in the short term.

In the end, he chose to take another path, that is to find someone who understands these things.

The people who found it at the beginning either thought that Zhu Youxing was a liar, because Zhu Youxing really looked like a liar to people in this era.

Living alone, without a normal office location, only a residential house for daily life, and life is still irregular, and then hope to make some game console that they have never heard of.

To find this Hayazawa Airi who knows all kinds of electrical and electronic manufacturing knowledge is also a lucky encounter from the street.

She couldn't find a job outside and she was discovered by Zhu Yuxing with a dejected look on her face. It was probably because of his empathy in his previous life. He asked him to pay a little attention to Hayazawa Airi, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the other party turned out to be a graduate of the electrical major that he needed very much. born.

Then he quietly observed Hayazawa Airi's process of finding a job for a few days.

At the beginning, Takeyuhoshi was still a little uneasy about whether Hayazawa Airi was willing to work with him.

But I didn't expect the other party to agree immediately without the slightest hesitation when he heard that the daily salary of 10,000 was still a daily settlement.

I'm afraid it's because I'm afraid of looking for a job, I don't know what doubt is, or Hayazawa Airi is a little nervous.

Then, unexpectedly, Hayazawa Airi has worked harder than herself since working with him.

If it weren't for the fact that he seemed to be full of energy all the time, he might not be able to compare with Hayazawa Airi's desperate energy.

Then, after several weeks of hard work by the two of them, the prototype of the first-generation game console was finally produced, and at the same time, there was also the first popular video game in the true sense of the world.

Super Mario Bros. came out in this world.

That familiar scene made Zhu Youxing feel so excited that he was about to shed tears at this moment.

The sense of accomplishment of things created through my own continuous efforts is indeed different.

Although, this is something made by copying the success of the predecessors.

Zhu Youxing is silently thinking about those familiar game producers, thanking them for bringing these interesting things to the world.

If you are not in this parallel world, then let me help you carry forward the game in this world!

"Is this what Takeyou-san said to change the world?"

Behind Takeyuhoshi, Hayazawa Airi stared at the TV screen without blinking.

She really has no interest in small things that can move on TV, which makes her even start to doubt whether the thing she made is meaningful.

Of course, Zhu Youxing is quite generous in giving money, and 10,000 yen in cash will be handed over to her on time every night.

Could there be a better job than this?

Facing Hayazawa Airi's question, Takeyuho replied without any hesitation: "Of course, maybe you don't think this thing is interesting, but it may be different for other people. Okay, let's continue. Let's work on the next step!"

"Next step? What is it?"

After Zhu Youxing skillfully passed the first level of Mario Brothers, he unplugged some ugly circuit boards

"Of course we need to find a place to promote our products."

Video games may be very strange to people in this world.

But in Zhu Youxing's view, the people who built this world have never played really interesting games.

The Super Mario Bros. game is enough to be regarded as a milestone game.

In the era of the game desert, such a game entered the market like a shot in the arm, completely activating the entire video game market, and then it was out of control ever since.

So Zhu Youxing has reason to believe that even if this game can't play the best effect in this world, at least the children in this world should welcome it very much.

Unless the bear children in this world are all eager to learn and have no interest in entertainment at all.

However, judging from the fanatical pursuit of children in this world for all kinds of mutant TV shows where Ultraman fights monsters, the children in this world have no lower pursuit of entertainment than in previous lives.

Hayazawa Airi still couldn't understand these strange brain circuits of Takeyuho.

How interesting is such a thing that can manipulate activities?

Can't the current household personal computer achieve the same effect?

Why bother to make such an ugly device?

In this era, computers have become popular, and their performance is not low. Online games have also taken a rudimentary form, but they are also very boring and completely suppressed by TV entertainment.

Hayazawa Air didn't understand, but it didn't prevent her from continuing to work.

After all, this is the only employer who is willing to give himself a job during this period.

"By the way, Airi, are you interested in wearing babydolls?"

"What outfit?"

Hayazawa Airi didn't react for a while.

Zhu Youxing pointed to the downstairs and said, "Come on, I'll show you."

Take Yuho took the game console and went downstairs, Hayazawa Airi also followed behind Takeyuho inexplicably.

After arriving at the door, Hayazawa Airi found several huge packages appeared at the door.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Youxing walked over to unpack the packages one by one, and took out the contents.

Those are two sets of costumes for cartoon big-headed dolls.

It's like those staff costumes in amusement parks where visitors and kids take pictures and play together.

"Come on, put this on, and then we'll go to the place with the most kids in the neighborhood."

Zhu Youxing began to put on a big-headed doll costume on himself while talking.

As for Hayazawa Airi, she was still a little dazed.

"Hey! Takeyou-san, you never said that I have an option to be a mascot in my job!"

"Add five thousand yen today."
