Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

There are many people like Yumi Waki ​​Kazuma.

When they saw the creation of the game world on the website of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, they were very eager to join in and sign up to learn how to make games.

Just imagining yourself creating an electronic world is pretty cool.

But there are not many people who really dare to practice.

Most of them still work and have families.

In this era of bursting bubbles, they dare not gamble. They don't have extra time to do other jobs, so they can only suppress this impulse in their hearts.

They are actually waiting, waiting for the first person to eat crabs, but they dare not take that first step themselves.

At the same time, a new weekly sales record came to Zhu Youxing's desk again.

He picked up the data and began to study it seriously.

After three months of sales so far, the sales of game consoles have exceeded 300,000, which greatly exceeded Zhu Youxing's expectations.

At the beginning, he thought that the sales of 120,000 game consoles in the first three months would be enough.

After all, people in this world don't fully understand video games, and they need some time to settle down.

But perhaps the low-price strategy played a big role. Several top-quality games coupled with already cheap game consoles made it easier to open up the market than imagined.

In order to stop their children's noisy mouths, many parents spend some money to buy a game console and one or two games for their children, which is actually acceptable.

There are also children who can buy a game console with their own savings for several years, and do not need to rely entirely on their parents.

After word-of-mouth fermentation by those who bought it, it quickly swept the Tokyo metropolitan area and its surrounding areas in three months, becoming a symbol of fashion, and has begun to spread rapidly to more areas.

The weekly sales of the red and white consoles in the latest week have reached 40,000 units, which has completely surpassed the sales of game consoles in the first week, and judging from this trend, the next week will only increase and not decrease.

In addition, the sales data of the game is also increasing rapidly.

Contra and Dragon Quest have also exceeded 200,000 sales.

Tetris is also hovering at 190,000 copies, and Bomberman, the lowest in several other games, has sold 120,000 copies, which can be said to be gratifying.

And next week is the release date of the next game, Red Fortress, and many players are ready to buy it immediately with the money in their hands.

Zhuyouxing is quite satisfied with this sales data.

And the company's reserve funds are quite sufficient, even if it is now forming a super team of hundreds of people to make a large-scale game.

But it’s not enough now, the game industry is not mature enough, and there are not many talents related to the game industry. If we make large-scale games now, I am afraid that most of the money and time will be wasted on useless places.

The most important thing is to find a way to expand the scale of the industry, and this is just the beginning.

Let's implement the game producer training plan first. It is estimated that it will take about two to three months to train the first batch of game programmers and producers.

After these people gradually mature, the number and scale of games on the market will expand rapidly, and then wait another one or two years for the entire industry to gradually mature.

At this time, many super classic big-production games of later generations have appeared in Zhu Youxing's mind.

For example, Red Dead Redemption, God of War, etc.

Hey, I really want to play these games, but it's a pity that I can't do it now.

Even a mature game engine has not been developed yet.

Just as Zhu Youxing was imagining the beautiful vision of future games, there was a slightly hasty knock on the door.

Zhu Youxing pulled back his thoughts and said, "Please come in."

"President Zhuyou, please read this!"

A man in a neat suit walked in. This man was called Natsume Yasushi, who was the general manager of the marketing department of the company that had just been established.

This is an executive hired by Minoru Matsuhashi through a headhunting company.

He used to work for a machinery manufacturing company, but after the bubble burst, the company almost went bankrupt. The employees began to look for their own way out, and then he was recruited by Matsuhashi Minoru.

His business ability is good. His previous decisions have helped the company overcome several difficulties, but the company itself lacks development potential and was eventually eliminated by the market. He had to find another home.

When he learned that this was a start-up company, he didn't want to come at first, but after seeing the company's sales data in the first two months, he hardly hesitated.

During the period when he came to the company, he and Da Tianzheng worked together to build a marketing strategy and framework. Now the sales of game consoles and games are so fast, he has a share of the credit.

Natsume Yasulong came directly to Takeyusei's desk, and then put the two documents on the desk.

One of them is a newspaper from Economic News today, and the other is a screenshot from the Internet.

Zhu Youxing picked it up curiously, and quickly locked his eyes on one of the sections of the newspaper.

It was a relatively conspicuous advertising position in the newspaper.

If he remembered correctly, this advertising space costs 10 million yen a week, which is more expensive than TV advertising. When he heard the price, he immediately gave up advertising in the newspaper.

At this time, an electronic device appears in this advertising space.

This device has a simple gray square shell, and then there are two handles. On the handles, Zhu Youxing saw buttons that he was very familiar with.

There are four buttons on the left, up, down, left, and right, which seem to represent four direction keys, and on the right are three buttons arranged in a triangle. The colors of the three buttons are distinguished by red, blue, and yellow.

'The most advanced and high-end electronic entertainment game console products: PN type electronic game consoles are now on sale! '

In addition to the newspaper, there is also an advertisement taken from a certain page on the Internet, which also promotes this PN game console

"President Zhuyou, some people have started to imitate our game consoles. I think the legal department should be dispatched immediately to stop their sales."

Natsume Yasulong said with a serious expression.

He's an old hand at marketing.

Once a product that is very similar to his own appears on the market, it means that users will be diverted immediately. At this time, Yasuo Natsume knows that there is only one way to solve the problem to a certain extent, and it must be fast!

That is to warn the other party in the form of patent infringement, and at the same time prepare for a long-term lawsuit, which can slow down the opponent's pace.

Now that the development of Youxing Electronic Entertainment is on the rise, if there is a game console of the same type to compete with him, it will definitely be a big trouble.

Natsume Yasulong took this matter very seriously.

In his imagination, when Zhu Youxing saw the news, he might feel a little nervous, after all, he looked like he was only in his early twenties, which was normal.

It's just that he was surprised to find that after reading the news, Zhu Youxing didn't feel nervous or flustered, but instead seemed...a little excited?

PS: I just found out that I seem to have missed a chapter yesterday, readers and bosses, sorry, I will make up this chapter today, and then add another chapter tomorrow to make up for it.
