Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Tetris, this can be regarded as the classic old IP of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

Later, this work was successfully included in the international classic design directory.

Other games may have room for continuous evolution in terms of gameplay.

But the game of Tetris is really a king bomb at the beginning.

Later Tetris games were nothing more than adding some special effects on the basis of the original game rules, or some more stylized painting styles.

It is difficult to optimize the gameplay.

In the original world of Zhuyouxing, Tetris is also a classic. If the Tetris built into the game console is included, the total sales of Tetris in the previous life can reach more than 500 million copies.

Far away from the second-ranked Minecraft by twice as much.

And don't look at the simple rules of Tetris, and it seems that the game has been released in this world for more than ten years, but it is still enduring.

According to current online statistics, there are millions of simultaneous online players playing Tetris on game consoles, handhelds, and PC Battle.net platforms.

If Zhu Youxing really wanted to use this game to make money, he would be able to make a lot of money just by moving out the routine of buying and selling skins.

The popularity of Tetris in this world is no less than that of games like Matchmaker in the original world.

Those who want to buy the copyright of this game really have a good vision.

Zhu Youxing said: "The other party wants to buy the copyright of Tetris, but he is unwilling to reveal his name, so it seems that it must have something to do with us, I think you should directly reject this purchase request, right? "

The assistant nodded: "Yes, but it feels like this is a rather special thing, I think I should report it to you, the president."

Zhu Youxing thought for a while and said: "Let's find a way to find out who wants to buy it. I'm really curious about who the person who wants to buy Tetris is."

"OK."

That afternoon, the assistant dug out the information of the person who wanted to buy it.

Maybe the other party didn't really hide it deliberately, but just didn't want to say it at first, so Youxing Electronic Entertainment only used a little trick to find the buyer's information.

"Mickford wants to buy Tetris?"

Hearing that the person who wants to buy the copyright of Tetris is Mike Fu, this is really beyond Zhu Youxing's expectations.

Mickford has never been very interested in video games in the past. Of course, his operating system will inevitably have video games. As for games, Zhu Youxing is quite familiar with this. Myron Keith, the boss, was kicked out of the Hongguo company he founded because of the video game industry. Now he naturally has some prejudices against video games.

But it is indeed surprising that such a prejudiced person would actively want to buy Tetris.

"President, when we found the other party's information, the other party did not hide it, but left us another sentence."

"What words?"

"Smartphones have become popular, and home console games and handheld games will gradually decline. He suggested that we think about stopping losses in time and stop sticking to the video game industry."

When the assistant said this, he also showed a mocking expression.

This kind of words is very provocative, so provocative that even her assistant finds it a little funny.

How can you say that video games will gradually decline?

Obviously, it is impossible for a layman to fully understand the video game itself.

Zhu Youxing didn't feel much funny about this sentence, but felt that the feeling of deja vu had come again.

Nagao Yu, the boss of YOO, said the same thing at the time, and claimed to spend a huge sum of money to acquire Youxing Electronic Entertainment, but in the end he couldn't solve it by himself, and was directly stabbed by the Japanese chaebol class. He is serving his sentence in a senior prison in Japan.

However, Nagaoyu is more like a clown-like character, and Mickford's current CEO, Myron Case, is different.

After coming to this world, Zhu Youxing felt that this guy had many similarities with Jobs in the original world.

He has enough proud capital, and he also has strict requirements for products, and the products he produces have indeed aroused the popularity of the public.

And more importantly, Myron Keith is now in the prime of life, with boundless energy, but he does not have the sick body that Jobs later had.

Myron Keith can still work hard for at least 20 or 30 years now, no problem.

Therefore, Zhu Youxing regarded him as a very threatening figure long ago, so he made the layout in advance and asked Facebook to develop smartphones in advance to compete with Myron Case.

And a sane enough person like Myron Keith should not be dizzy and propose to buy game copyrights on his own side.

This is really puzzling.

Zhu Youxing might not have imagined that Myron Case himself was completely using public funds to satisfy his own consumption because of his interest and love for Tetris.

But Tetris is indeed worth $100 million.

If this copyright is a little more exaggerated, it is not impossible to ask for a price of one billion US dollars.

"President, should we reply with some mocking words? Let him give up the idea of ​​buying?"

Zhu Youxing said: "This...it's not necessary, anyway, we definitely don't sell it, but there is no need to reply to the other party."

Although I don't quite understand the reason why Myron Case suddenly wanted to acquire the copyright of Tetris because of his abnormal brain circuit, but just based on this acquisition attempt, it can be seen that the smartphone industry is indeed developing very well.

Myron Keith also has enough spare cash to buy the copyright of a game.

The market is gradually being ruled by Myron Case.

Zhu Youxing put down the game development work at hand, and then said to his assistant: "Help me count the sales performance of us, Su Rui Electronics and other small-scale handheld game console production companies. I want to see the current market share occupation status."

"President, our handheld business is very small now, do we need detailed data?"

"Need, I want an accurate data to prove my guess."

"I see."

After speaking, the assistant left again.

Then two days later, the assistant prepared all the materials Zhu Youxing needed.

These data are the sales performance of several manufacturers that are still producing handhelds so far.

In addition to Yuxing Electronic Entertainment itself, the sales performance of other such manufacturers can be easily obtained.

Because they are all listed companies, they need to regularly disclose their current sales performance and the company's overall development plan to shareholders and the public.

Looking at these report data, Zhu Youxing vaguely returned to the time when he was still a social animal in the original world.

At that time, what I saw the most were codes and tables.
