Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Movies are indeed an entertainment industry with a century-old history, and their influence is more deeply rooted than video games.

In just a few days, the film's traditional characters seem to have the upper hand.

They spoke out from various media and channels, resolutely resisting Youxing Electronic Entertainment's behavior that disrupts the balance of the film.

Unless Zhu Youxing takes the initiative to apologize and relinquishes control over the director's actions, he won't be able to enter the US theaters.

With the connections of these people, it is still very easy to prevent a company with little influence from releasing a movie.

However, it is not that no one has come out to scold these filmmakers with a certain status.

It's just that these people are very young.

They are a generation of game players trained by Zhu Youxing, but they are generally just approaching 20 years old.

Such an age is not enough to form one's own influence in society, but it will be considered by the mainstream as a symbol of rebellion.

No matter how hard such a group of people try, it seems to be of no avail, and they cannot form their own social influence at all.

In fact, it's normal to think about it. Even the video game industry, which has a history of nearly 50 years in the previous life, is also difficult to match the influence of other entertainment industries.

Not even if the video game market itself has surpassed many entertainment industries.

In the end, video games have to seek a sense of identity from traditional industries such as the Olympic Games, and want to be truly recognized by the mainstream of society.

But the fact that video games are born should be completely different.

On a certain interview program, well-known filmmakers stood up again and voiced accusations.

"This person called Zhu Youxing meddling in other industries and usurping all the rights of the director is really trampling on the film industry. I think everyone should resist such people, and you see, video games seem to be from the very beginning. In this way, they use very domineering behaviors to seize the market, completely disregarding any consequences. I even think that video games have some kind of toxicity hidden in them, which makes people crazy. But movies are different. Movies are often full of artistry. Works that will lift people from their souls are not comparable to entertainment products that are only a few years old."

These words are very offensive when they are shown in the interview program, and they are very directly belittling video games, and at the same time exalting the film industry.

Zhu Youxing couldn't bear it anymore.

It's nothing to be criticized for the rejection of the movie he supervised. After all, he is really not in this industry. He just wants to reproduce the scene of the Final Fantasy 7 movie in his previous life, so that people in this world can also feel him. The cultural charm of that world.

If people in this world don't recognize your own movies, then forget it.

But you guys directly belittle video games and elevate your own industry, this is absolutely unacceptable.

Zhu Youxing recognizes movies very much, and there are countless classic movies in his memory that he revisits every year, among which there are indeed many excellent works.

But after all, this is an entertainment product. If movies do not have the basis of entertaining the public, and they elevate themselves to the level of art from the very beginning, then this industry would have died long ago.

The same goes for moving this to other cultural industries.

Some of them are really pursuing artistry and more elegant things, but what supports the entire industry should be those entertainment things.

Without the birth of industrialized Hollywood, it is estimated that movies now may only be fringe and unpopular entertainment products, which will only be ruthlessly ridiculed by sideshows and dramas.

The same is true of video games.

Zhuyouxing has always been committed to cultivating the industrial manufacturing system of the entire industry, because only the industrial manufacturing system can cultivate a group of creative people under the premise of stabilizing the industry.

It's like cultivating scientists with the power of the whole country.

Of the one thousand scientists trained by the state, only one may be the most talented, and the others can only be accompanied. But if the one thousand scientists are not trained, this one may never be born.

Such a guy can stand and talk without back pain.

This is very similar to the managers of those TV stations in Japan who used to be stubborn and insisted on some meaningless things. In fact, there are still interests behind them as the driving force.

Such a person is not elegant in itself.

At this moment, some influential media magazines are also vigorously promoting this point, as if they intend to lower the status of Youxing Electronic Entertainment from the very beginning.

These magazines also have the shadow of the film industry, and they are all magazines and periodicals of some companies under the film industry.

If a leading company in the industry like Youxing Electronic Entertainment is overwhelmed because of this, then it means that this industry is definitely not good, everyone should not pay attention to this thing, our movies are much more interesting and connotative than this, a lot Give us your money.

In fact, they are very cunning and cunning in their hearts.

This time Zhu Youxing was not polite either.

He will not directly attack a certain industry, but there will always be a group of rotten fish and rotten shrimp in some industries, and these guys don't have to be too polite.

About influence? I'm afraid you film people haven't seen the real Internet age yet, have you?

Now at this time facebook plays a role.

Bob, the CEO of Facebook, was still asleep at night.

Now his life is very nourishing, the darling of capital, and the object of admiration of countless young people, countless people want to join his company.

Now it has become a super Internet social giant with more than 300 million registered users worldwide.

As long as there are no accidents, such a social enterprise will become an absolute hegemon, just like Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

Nowadays, no one can underestimate Bob, he also has his own personality, even when facing the president of the United States, he can be calm and composed.

Last time he even had the opportunity to have dinner with the president and be a guest of honor.

However, in the middle of the night, the phone rang.

Bob was very upset when he heard the phone call in the middle of the night.

But he still glanced at the phone beside the bed.

"Bob, this guy is really serious. Just turn off the phone when you're with me, and you'll be woken up at such a late night!"

Beside Bob is a young and beautiful woman.

Bob is not as cold as the robot-faced Mark in his previous life. Instead, he is a passionate guy with a technical geek.

Especially after he became famous, he became even less disciplined in this regard.

But it's not a big deal, a CEO like him already has this privilege, and no one thinks there's anything wrong with it.

Bob ignored the woman around him, but immediately got up and picked up the phone, then answered the call with a very respectful expression, and at the same time told the woman around him to shut up quickly, so as not to disturb him on the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Takeyu?"

Bob's tone was very formal, a complete departure from his usual casual demeanor.

Because Zhu Youxing is his Bole, and he is also his initial investor, and more importantly, Zhu Youxing is also a provider of countless ideas.

Zhu Youxing has never actively participated in any management of social networks.

But Zhu Youxing has many social methods from later generations in his mind.

What kind of social squares, emotional markers, emoticons, Weibo and Twitter models, and many advanced social concepts simply make Bob overwhelmed.

He even felt that if Zhu Youxing didn't make video games, but created a social network by himself, Bob would probably be easily beaten by Zhu Youxing.

The reason why social networks are popular is that there are countless new tricks, so that every user has a sense of freshness all the time, and is even addicted to it for this reason.

This is also the biggest reason why his Facebook can grow into a giant.

Without Zhu Youxing, Bob's social network really wouldn't be able to develop as it is now.

So no matter what level you look at, Zhu Youxing is someone he needs to respect 100%, not even the president of the United States.

Bob once thought that the person he admired most should be a well-known programmer, because this fits his identity as a geek.

But later he realized that he was wrong. People like Zhu Youxing are the ones he should admire most. How such a person’s brain grows is very puzzling. The endless stream of ideas seems to be inexhaustible.

This is true in its own industry, and it is also constantly shining in other industries.

"I'm sorry Bob to bother you so late, but I really have something to let you know as soon as possible."

"It's okay, I'm waiting for your call, Mr. Zhuyou, at any time. If you need anything, just come to me."

"That's good."

Zhu Youxing said slowly: "How is the video section of your social network running now?"

"Video section? You mean the section for online film and television videos?"

"That's right."

"At present, we can only ensure the balance of income and expenditure, the number of registered users has not increased, and the number of monthly paying users is still a little bit."

Zhu Youxing said: "Then what if I add fire to your forum?"

"Add fire to my board?"

Bob was taken aback.

He still didn't quite understand what was going on.

"I'm supervising the production of a movie recently, you should know this, right?"

"Of course I know that." Bob nodded, and then said with a somewhat aggrieved expression, "Mr. Takeyou, those rigid filmmakers are really hateful, and I'm actually considering whether to use my influence to let these guys nice."

Zhu Youxing shook his head: "That's not necessary. There's no way to block the mouths of these people with some heretic methods. The best way to slap them in the face is to be blasted in their own industry, so I thought of what I once did. For your proposed subscription-based video section."

About a year ago, Zhu Youxing suddenly thought of the Netflix model.

Netflix is ​​also a company with quite a legendary factor.

It used to be just a very small video rental store.

But in the end, it was able to grow into a giant in the subscription video industry under the advanced vision again and again, and even shook the entire film industry in the end.

Even though the entire traditional film industry tried its best to resist the so-called streaming media subscription system at the beginning, in the end these so-called capitals above the so-called artists still bowed down to the subscription system, and one by one they joined the streaming media industry one after another with a sense of integrity to seize respective markets.

Zhu Youxing also felt that this seemed to be a good time more than a year ago, so he suggested to Bob the plan of streaming media subscription video platform.

In fact, it’s not just a video subscription system. Zhu Youxing thinks that he will also make a video game subscription system sooner or later, but now is not the time. The current industrialization of video games is not mature enough, so we have to wait.

However, film and television dramas are already very mature, and the subscription system can be started to play.

Bob happens to be a waver of the Internet, and he still has a lot of money to squander. This subscription system is a very good point of expansion.

As for the subscription system, Bob didn't have much feeling. At that time, he was still thinking about how to make his social platform bigger. How could hundreds of millions of users be enough? His goal is to use his social network all over the world, at least it needs to start with a billion.

But this was Zhu Youxing's suggestion, and it didn't sound like it would cost much, so he followed Zhu Youxing's instructions to increase the department of the subscription-based video platform, and let some guys who are enthusiastic about this aspect do it themselves With the money to study, he has no time to take care of these.

At the beginning, he thought that this thing would probably burn a lot of money, and maybe there would be no turning back in three to five years.

But what I didn't expect was that in just one year, the video section platform can now break even.

However, it is only a balance of payments. If you want to expand the number of users, it seems to have encountered a bottleneck.

Obviously, more people still hope to have physical film and television works, and don't want to spend more money on this illusory subscription platform.

As long as you don't subscribe, then everything will no longer belong to you. This is not particularly suitable for most people's concept. They still prefer things that are actually in their hands.

From Zhuyouxing's point of view, this is actually the lack of some explosive points that can motivate these users to pay.

This kind of explosive point may come from a certain blockbuster movie, or it may come from a sudden change in people's ideas in a certain period.

The former Zhu Youxing has already thought of it, and that is the movie version of Final Fantasy 7.

Since your traditional film channels refuse to cooperate, then I don’t need to play with you at all. You are a sunset that is constantly going downhill, and the last few years can only be regarded as the last few years of glory.

After streaming media really grows up, although movie theaters will still have influence, they will definitely not be mainstream anymore.

Before Zhuyouxing crossed, the movie theater hadn't declined yet, but it was already very obvious that it was going downhill.

Especially in the environment of the great epidemic in the previous life, it exacerbated the decline of traditional movie theaters.

At that time, Zhu Youxing believed that it would take ten years for the cinema to completely become history.

Then, it is also possible to come to this world to arrange the following in advance.
